Sparq reviews

The salary is ridiculous. They said in an article that Programmer Analysts get paid average 62K when all the analysts I speak with are making below that. Location isn't a viable argument, being that all your locations are "low cost of living" right? If you're in LIMS then it's probably not the best environment. Also, you might get thrown onto random projects that have nothing to do with your skill set or even what you want to learn.

Unaccountable senior leadership. Everyone knows the founders have already made their money and seem checked out, and out of touch - and have lost all the respect of colleagues. Management seems to be in over their heads trying to reinvent a company that no longer has a clear identity in the market since they baled on the 100% US model. Many clients are not renewing, and it seems the company continues to shrink. There is no consistent communication to ground level colleagues, and what does come is full of lies and misinformation. The great culture that once was is long gone - especially with 3 recent acquisitions that really don’t seem to be integrating well given the number of layoffs that continue to happen. And the company structure is a confusing mess - moving from regions, to ‘cohorts’, now to practices. What next? It’s like they are reading a different management book every 6 months.
