Spire Global reviews

E staff is incredibly out of touch with employees. They consistently are opaque, condescending, and communicate in ways that are dishonest and manipulative, The husband-wife duo at the helm keeps giving themselves stock bonuses and the wife sends bizarre lengthy email "updates" to the company that contain things like how they just got back from European vacations and how difficult they've found getting childcare is (how tone deaf when they make SO MUCH money!). One VP bluntly said during a (weird and uncomfortable) holiday party speech that long hours and working weekends was "not going to stop." They pay below industry standards, don't match 401ks, push employees to go back to in-office, won't give cost of living adjustments until you've worked there two years, give you worthless stock options to avoid paying you more upfront, the list goes on. People work here because you get to do stuff with satellites, and they leave once they realize they do all the real work just to be treated poorly.

We have been required (forced) to work in the office during COVID 3 days per week. Fully remote executives are the ones that make the decisions about when everyone else has to go into the office. Compensation is not competitive. Raises and cost of living can only happen every 2 years. There are very few quality leaders throughout the entire organization. Most equity "incentives" are worth nothing and are negative right now. The company is fully owned by Peter (CEO) and Theresa (COO) Platzer.
