Endless opportunity!

Pros

Spreetail is the best opportunity in Lincoln. There are not many companies that do over $150M and say we are just getting started. We are challenged on a daily basis - there are more things to do at Spreetail than people to do them. You are put in positions to do things you wouldn't otherwise get the chance to do elsewhere. Endless opportunity and career advancement.

Cons

We work really hard and have some ginormous goals in front of us! Some say we lack work/life balance and others want to accept the challenge.

Pros

Unlimited time off if your manager approves it. Fair workload. Decently new software stack, except for the monolithic core with a bunch of VB.

Cons

The entire company is dependent on a small number of vendor's products, e.g. intex. Projects are spun up and die within weeks, you may think fail-fast is good, but this is more like thrashing around aimlessly. Company laid off nearly 75% of engineers, both old and new hires. They have done this multiple times.

Don’t work here

Pros

None. There’s nothing good to say about Spreetail

Cons

Too many meetings that you don’t have time to really work. Really bad leadership in the developers team, the person in charge doesn’t listen to other developers, just the ones that have been there for a long time (that are just like 2 because honestly, everybody wants to leave). He wants everything done in a certain way but doesn’t guide you on how it should be done. They use internal components, that doesn’t have good documentation so you also have to guess there how to use everything and probably they will tell you that you made it wrong. The leaders are really awful, and this is something I heard on different developers teams. Also, in my team we where all feeling stress out and nervous because all I just mentioned. If you like a leader that will treat you poorly, doesn’t guide you, lacks of empathy- then go ahead, spreetail is the best for you. I do want to say that I met like 2-3 people there that are really great humans, employees and leaders, but one of them quit because all I just said, and the other ones where so burn out that I’m sure they will be out sooner
