      Pros

      - depending on what department you are in there is work life balance - monthly snack box

      Cons

      - Managers gaslight you - ambiguity - a lot of people in management positions that don't know what they're doing but somehow still keep their jobs - Very little or bad training - people disappear but you aren't told they left but keep being told that "so and so" handles a certain task only to find that their Slack profile has been deactivated. - Managers tell you that "you need to prove yourself" in order to get promoted by telling you to do exactly what you have been doing. Refer to first point, gaslighting. - No interdepartmental collaboration. There seems to be a hierarchy of which departments get abused and which get put on a pedestal.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry that you’re not enjoying working at Spruce. You mentioned training as an area of opportunity. Within the last quarter, we’ve added a training function and employees now receive a dedicated orientation week when they start work. It also sounds like you haven’t felt like you had great communication with your manager. You can always come to People Ops to help resolve these types of concerns -- or anything else that’s on your mind. We would love the opportunity to have this important conversation face to face. Please don’t hesitate to set up time to talk more about what you’re seeing and how we can help.

      Watch out for massive layoffs

      Pros

      At first I thought it was the best job ever, a forward thinking technology driven title company that allowed 100% remote work with well integrated software.

      Cons

      Similar to all start ups, they hired tons of staff with zero title experience and of course a few years into operations, the compliance and recording fines kicked in and instead of reevaluating all the things the have been doing wrong, they do massive company wide layoffs without regard to staff knowledge or experience. They are the blind leading the blind.

      Pros

      Some coworkers became like family.

      Cons

      No training provided. Lack of company direction. Tasks and responsibilities change without notice. Lazy management and work culture. Messy and incompetent HR staff. Unrealistic expectations. Massive layoffs.
