Pros

I like it here and that Spartan is growing very fast, so that does mean there's a lot to do and you can grow. There's not red tape or protocol and if you are a go-getter it could be good for your career. The brand is really cool. The community is what makes this place special. Sad that the company is very different from the values that it talks about to racers.

Cons

There's a serious bias towards the male leadership. It's super chummy and unless you're one of them and a man, there is a ceiling. I have heard someone in leadership mention and make comments about a female worker's race and dating life, using slurs. It's pretty typical for jokes or comments to be made about an employee's personal life and for that to turn into some nasty locker room chat. The company is not being guided clearly. It's jumping from one fire drill to another. No one is steering the ship and we always joke that it's a sinking ship. Which feels not that far from the truth.

Pros

Travel, flexibility, a lot of opportunities to develop leadership

Cons

They take advantage of you by expecting to train people above you. Any type of growth is stripped based on your location and not performance. Pay-cuts constantly happening and budget cuts.
