I have been with Spruce for more than 7 years.
1 year as an contractor and 6+ years as an Full Time Employee.
Spruce has evolved over the years.
To date all that I can say I had positive experience overall.

As a member of the Spruce Technology management team, I hesitated to add this posting at all. However, I thought it might be valuable to add a management perspective to reviews of our company. In addition, I want any prospective employees to know that the leadership here really cares how our company performs in support of our staff. As I tell everyone thinking about joining Spruce Technology, we are not perfect, but I hope we are getting better every day. At the present time, we are facing the typical challenges of a company experiencing rapid growth and transitioning to the next level of size and complexity in our operations. The tools, processes and policies that were acceptable for the management of a company made up of less than 200 people and offering relatively few services are no longer sufficient as we spread across the country, reach across national borders, and stretch our capabilities in many directions at once.
Recognizing this, the Spruce Technology team is constantly tweaking, investing and evolving. I am personally drawn to our company for both who we are, and what we will become. We are a growing technical services provider, built on the integrity of our founders, and we have our sights set high. Being a personal example of how Spruce Technology promotes from within and supports its people, I look forward to continuing to work with Spruce Technology employees at all levels and in all areas of the company, to make the company what we want it to be, and to grow along with our employer.

There is incredible promise for this start-up consulting company. It's very exciting to watch it develop. A majority of Spruce staff is honestly some of the kindest individuals I have ever had the pleasure of working with. That culture keeps me coming back day after day. It also has the feel of a small company/grassroots organization which is very refreshing. Organization wise, the company has a ways to go. A majority of its management is truly amazing, but the pockets of not-so-amazing (both from Spruce and client management) hold it back. If you can look past the potential mismanagement you may encounter, remember you are surrounded by great coworkers, and strive for that big picture - you'll find that grassroots needle among a haystack of corporate consulting agencies. I have no doubt that once its footing is found, Spruce Technology will become a major contender in the IT consulting world. That, in itself, is very exciting. Just don't forget your roots, Spruce!
