Decent Workplace with Strong Learning Opportunities - Project Coordinator Sphera Solutions Employee Review

Easy workload and management is great overall

Would have to work OT, which can be paid only sometimes

Opportunity to meet incredible people, but there are not too many

Sphera is a private equity owned company, so its corporate culture and employee benefits pretty much speak for themselves. In just a few short years, Sphera has been through several rebrandings and rounds of layoffs, and senior management is nothing short of incompetent. All the senior managers and the CEO care about is whether the revenue figures on their spreadsheets are ticking upward, not about actually safeguarding the company’s performance by tackling problems at the source or adhere the preached culture values. They lean on the capable people to do all the work, repackage those results as their own personal accomplishments, keep their ears filled with flattery from the incompetent, and then cut heads if the numbers on their little spreadsheets don’t go up. The result is they can’t hold on to talented people, low team morale, and they’re left with a pack of directors, managers and VPs who have impressive titles and not a single subordinate. This company is sliding downhill a little more every day, and frankly I’d be amazed if it manages to survive another few years without being sold off by its private equity owners.
