Don't trust the values

Pros

Only thing that kept me afloat was amazing coworkers and affordable benefits.

Cons

I gave 100% to this company and still got undervalued. They look like a great company, on paper. Being a member there is amazing but they do not show a fraction of this care to their employees. All things they do are to add a label ("Best Place to Work" award!") or keep mask mandates in place just so that they say they do, not because they actually care about your health. Staffing is so slim that you cannot call out for sick days, or upper management will hear about it and you'll be looked down on. Anything you say for feedback is tied to your name and reputation. It is extremely toxic and plays favorites. Even though I am told I am one of the favorites, I am constantly told I need to do better. You are limited to a 40 hour work week with no overtime, even though you are doing the job of 2-3 people. There is no relief and management is constantly moving around you, you are given no support from upper management even though your direct manager may care. Dont trust the "good" reviews here, go ask a current employee and you'll see the real Spire. If you're a member here, you are getting stellar treatment and it's a wonderful place. As employees, we are overworked and held to impossible standards. The only fear I had in leaving was leaving my awesome coworkers to drown in this company with no support at all.

Thanks for taking the time to submit a review. It’s always difficult to hear that an employee didn’t feel as valued as we would hope. We do acknowledge that with unemployment at an all-time low staffing is a challenge and it is taking longer to fill open positions than it has in the past. We’re always open to hearing any additional individual feedback at hrmail@myspire.com.
