Sphero reviews

The software and production teams at Sphero are incredibly talented and creative, but also supportive. There's a culture of mentorship and learning among the software engineers. The team members are good at providing feedback and having candid conversations about what it takes to make something special. It's not only common for junior engineers to ask for help, but also senior engineers feel comfortable asking junior engineers for a hand too. It all seems like just what it takes to create awesome things. Everyone takes a genuine interest in the development and they work together to solve the challenges. The collaboration between engineers and artists is close. Engineers and artists and designers are in a constant back-and-forth that gives the team members a real impact on the direction of the product. For example, I've seen a new junior engineer have an idea that changed the entire direction of a product that was used by millions of people, and his name is on the patent now. People there are generous with their feedback, generous with their ideas, and there's a shared sense of accomplishment. There's time to create your own hacks and try out your own product ideas. There's opportunities to help at fun events all around the country. In addition to being a software engineer, I also got to publicly speak about our technologies at events, help children in classrooms all over the country learn to program, organize hackathons, and even visit the White House. The work is meaningful, fun, and full of surprises.
