      Pros

      The ability to work remotely changed my life, my average commute prior to joining SP was 4 hours a day. The ability to move my family to a more affordable area but keep the salary I earned has allowed for a safer, more enjoyable experience for my family. Along with remote work benefits, the health coverage is affordable to the employee and able to be used among a broad list of health providers. Another benefit I've taken full advantage of is the company expensed professional certifications. Since joining SP I have been able to study for certifications that fit my role and experience, take the exams, and expense the costs of all 6 certifications I've attained. Additionally, whenever there has been gaps in processes or any issues at all regarding work policies or other employees, I've had a very supportive manager that has had my back every time. I feel supported at SP and have seen positive changes month to month, quarter to quarter, year to year in the early days of the company's existence.

      Cons

      Layoffs are never pretty, and never go over easy. But in the cases I've seen I believe there is an employee first approach that tries desperately to avoid layoffs. The careful balance of billable hours to available workforce is a moving target for all consultant based companies and I believe SP leadership has handled this well over the past 2 years. Unlike previous experiences at other companies, it's not always the ground level employee hitting the chopping block, executive leadership has been held accountable as well.

      Pros

      Lots of room to create your own structure and process. Respectful that employees are people. The organization actually cares about DEI, operationally, not just as lip service. Tons of opportunity for learning. Thoughtful CEO, who communicates clearly.

      Cons

      It is a difficult industry space for an org to enter, and I don't know anyone who does full service consultancy + agency particularly well. If you're gritty and you like creating your own structure, this can also be a pro.

      Pros

      You will be a fool to seek any pros here. It's not a decent workplace for people who want clear boundaries and hope to enjoy some work-life balance. These awful people will never respect the lines you draw.

      Cons

      The work expectations were ridiculously high. Employees were expected to be available 24/7, work on multiple projects, and meet client expectations while balancing poorly assigned deadlines. It was a struggle to show up every day when you knew they expected too much from you. It was exhausting to try to reason with the arrogant leadership that did nothing but pile horrible expectations. They also didn't give me enough room to grow. My learning stopped, and I was doing boring work for months. There was no career growth, either. Overall, it was a horribly frustrating experience, and I escaped before I could be trapped here for long.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that you felt overwhelmed and unsupported during your time with us. Your feedback about workload expectations, work-life balance, and development opportunities is taken seriously. We recognize that unrealistic deadlines and unclear boundaries can lead to burnout, and this is not the environment we want to create. Our new leadership is working to actively address these issues. Again, thank you for the feedback.
