Pros

Amazing lower level staffers who were dedicated to the work and worked hard to develop collaborative bonds even during remote time…Only to be laid off with no warning

Cons

Two mass layoffs in three years. Offered optional severance packages to salaried workers back in September, pushing the idea that the company was top heavy and production (hourly) workers shouldn’t be worried. A month later, me (an hourly worker) and hundreds of others were laid off with no warning. While constantly adapting to changing goals and daily duties with no compensation or promotions for added work, we were told we weren’t bleeding money and not to be worried. Top leadership slashed whole teams in half and gave the team managers no warning to deal with the aftermath. CEO is a mark zuckerberg wannabe that will always choose power and wealth over the community of employees he claims to highly value. Spreetail was my first experience in the job market and I was really excited. It was a sobering experience to say the least.

Pros

They are good at hiring many different terrific people.

Cons

Same thing you've read before. Cult-like culture. Weaponized, encoded feedback. Gendered expectations—I was given "feedback" to shrink myself to fit in; would they have said the same thing to a guy? Best was when my lead encouraged me to submit an anonymous survey for "feedback" on my character and performance to my entire team. :/
