Spiceworks Ziff Davis reviews

There are a lot of growing pains that come from immense growth and lack of processes. You must be proactive and be willing to tough it out frequently due to ever-changing processes and people's roles. This can be very stressful and tiresome. Compensation and benefits could improve: better pay and more vacation time.

Pay is lower than industry for most positions. Leadership doesn't know what they are doing in the sales and media operations departments. Lots of new middle manangemnet. The "OMG THIS IS THE BEST COMPANY EVERY AND WE ARE ALL SO AWESOME" culture has shifted since Jay Hallberg took over -- marketing and parts of engineering teams seem to be the only ones still drinking the kool-aid. The product isn't very good and the company inflates every usage stat. There was talk 2 years ago about IPO -- no longer.... Notice how all of the cool tech companies in Austin are downtown? Well...Spiceworks is off the parking lot that is Loop 360. Wanna meet your friends for happy hour off Rainey? Get ready for a 45 minute drive. No bus options, good luck riding your bike unless you want to get hit. Still no 401k match. Spiceworks is no longer a "start-up" -- a 401K match is a basic benefit for most other companies at Spiceworks' level.
