Too good to be true - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso SparkNET Interactive

I don't understand why there are so many negative reviews for this company. My experience here as been very good. The work environment is comfortable and feels like home, the work is very self motivated and satisfying, the pay is fair and the benefits are good, and the culture is very friendly and family like. All the amenities in the office are very very nice. You're not going to find many other places like this in the fox valley. Free lunch, access to gym, showers, underground parking, and other unnecessary but nice perks are great. It's also been a great experience working and learning about so many different programs and products. The job doesn't get into a rut like many other development jobs I've worked. I do different interesting things on a daily basis and rarely get bored.

I personally have nothing negative to say but if you prefer more structured work where you're told exactly what to do every step of the way then a job at Sparknet might not be for you.

Awesome building, free lunches, decent benefits package...great co-workers.

Low starting pay, non-existent raises (and the ones that are given are paltry at best), barely any time off, and yet we're expected to be motivated to provide loosely defined "value" other than our basic job functions. Micro-managing runs rampant, with the bosses chatting with co-workers all day and looking important mostly. Of the twenty-some "core values" painted on the 1st floor wall, "be clear in communication" is sloppily adhered to. Expectations are very unclear...
