Pros
The team is incredibly amazing.
Kontras
Spring is a game to the co-founders, staff are not valued or respected. Staff are belittled in front of peers and toxic company traits are rife. Team members are rewarded for working weekends / evenings and ‘jokes’ are made about staff not keeping their jobs if they don’t choose to conform. Company communication is done via WhatsApp in the form of a group message and the co-founders message regularly outside of working hours. If the co-founders don’t like a particular person they use obvious tactics to push them out of the business before moving on to the next person. In the same way they push people out, they equally have their favourites who can’t put a foot wrong. The co-founders lack transparency and recently fired 19 people out of the blue, one person below the collective redundancy threshold of 20, no formal process had to be followed and therefore wasn’t. The ‘safe staff’ were treated to company drinks two days after 19 people were left without a job. Staff were given the option to work their notice period or take less pay to leave early.
