Pros

Interesting technologies involving the IOT and cloud computing.

Cons

Organization in crisis: new blood holds remainder of company in shear contempt. Environment is best described as being a 'silo of the arrogant.' Developing the be-all-end-all cloud delivery system for at least a year, but nothing is actually being delivered to the customer via the 'perfect' systems that address all aspects of everything in a utter vacuum. If you work here you are not a person, but only a means to someone else's promotion.

Transitions are always difficult, and Spireon has certainly been in transition over the past 2 years, with many changes in management, personnel and infrastructure. For our technology teams, the objective of our transitions has been to implement “Best in Class” tools and processes to ensure we deliver reliable, high-performance solutions as we scale our business. Over last year or so, we have introduced and leveraged many proven technologies in IoT, Cloud, Big Data and Machine Learning space. Also, we're working on improving our overall software delivery process and have released many exciting features to our customers. We have even won several awards for our products and platform, which is so rewarding for the team. We admit we are not perfect, and we are sorry if our growing pains are difficult for some employees to navigate. Luckily, throughout our changes, we have been able to retain and hire exceptional people who have proven industry expertise and are excited about the opportunity to make a big impact at Spireon. As we implement mature processes and technologies used by industry leading companies (like AWS), we are always looking to eliminate bottlenecks, improve cross-team communication, and empower our people to work efficiently and collaboratively. Most importantly, our HR and leadership teams continually seek and act on employee feedback, including comments made on Glassdoor, so that we can build a culture that is as awesome as our technology!

Pros

Delayed poor quality projects are normal at Spireon

Cons

All Projects at Spireon are delayed varying from months to a whole year, and very poorly managed with very poor quality focus. Program Management is a big zero and project plans and issues are tracked and manged on skype! Great way to run your projects! If you came from the same companies as the Product Managment head or Engineering Management head you are safe if you are incompetent have no accountability and weak mangement skills. Some of the managers have no management skills, very poor organization and planning skills, poor communication but are still around as they are part of the teams bought in by the senior mangement team from earlier organizations. Very demotivating to say the least. The biggest issue with this company is total disregard for the employees work life balance and unrealistic expectations on delivery of projects.

Pros

Not a lot of positive comments I can make and I still work here. Our size is due to purchasing other companies; the one thing the leadership team has been able to do successfully.

Cons

Be careful, core values is just something they put on the wall to “look” corporate here. Employees are not valued and it’s a shame. I’ve never seen a company treat employees so much like a commodity as this company does. My advice is if you are looking for a team environment with a company that cares about its employees, keep looking. The other frustrating obstacle here is that we are always influx and never really delivery results because there is no prioritization. And yes; it does start from the top down here. So if you are considering this company, make sure you always keep your resume updated because one day you’ll need it.
