Pros

- Amazing people. You'll work with a bright, kind, and hard-working team daily. - Competitive compensation: in my personal experience, compensation is fair and in line with similar job opportunities and benefits are decent. - Management listens to their people and cares: this is huge! Your voice matters at Spectora; no employee is too small to have a meaningful opinion. All opinions are seriously considered and respected.

Cons

No big cons! If you are a remote worker, you will miss out on some of the benefits of working at a company with a great culture (like in-person events, office days, etc). I would also add that if you're not self-driven, it might not be the place for you. Opportunity/growth comes from hard work and drive, not by simply checking boxes.

Pros

WFH, Cool people to work with

Cons

There was a time when the CS team was touted as the best support team out there, but those times are long gone. Despite the constant micromanaging, a never-ending list of metrics being tracked, and having your day scheduled out to the minute, most days are chaotic and stressful with little to no support from the top. The schedules are so random and can change from day to day, leaving the people who are consistently in office or that work primarily on the chat to do all of the work. The product itself is not consistent, so clients have the option to use an old app that doesn’t work or a new app that doesn’t work. This has become the meat of the job on CS: defending a product that doesn’t work with no release date in sight, no legitimate tools to help, and again no support from the teams that could actually help. You’re left to apologize day in and day out, then accept being verbally abused by the clients when they’ve reached their limit. There are only so many opportunities for growth here, and those opportunities usually go to the favorites of the company. There used to be weekly company meetings, now those are biweekly, and as the close-knit feel of the company fades away so does the presence of the owners. Spectora had a great thing going, but getting ahead of themselves and trying to rebrand is killing them slowly.

Pros

Remote work from home job

Cons

Leadership is largely underqualified if not nowhere near qualified in every department. CS team picks favorites, unfairly fires, overworks employees, and engages in toxic/abusive behavior. Not worth the time, stress, or low pay cut.
