Constructive Feedback From Spiceworks Employees

  • What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
    It's pretty much over for Spiceworks. Sachs may break even, but one founder has already cut and run.
  • What needs to change to make the company culture better?
    Too many cooks in the kitchen, and the politics are about as shady as it gets. Complete HR disaster.
  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    From the top down no one knows what to do. The company is imploding and the burn rate is too high. Expect a flash sale before long.
