Pluspunten

Oxygen House is great with some really nice people in it. Sparx's every day employee are great just not management.

Minpunten

Upper management has no idea what they are doing. Unless you are pally with the owner and are in his little cult circle (a literal circle hey sit in) you are going nowhere. Promises are made and never followed through with. Micromanagement is a huge thing. Making employees feeling bad about wanting/needing to work from home while not outright saying we don't want you to work from home wake up it's 2024. They talk the talk with all their propaganda about being all about the employees but they are not. Very toxic work environment. Job security is zero. I would suggest if you are thinking about applying for Sparx to walk the other way. You will not regret it. What you will regret is a year down the line dreading coming into the office wondering what the hell you are doing in a place like that... Save your sanity and mental health and just avoid.

Pluspunten

Sparx is an education research and technology company that is facing an exciting challenge: figure out the best way to teach maths and help school teachers use this to get the best out of their students. I couldn't have wished for a better job. - Meaningful work every day - Great mix of people. It's not just your standard tech company as we have content writers and editors, examiners, video and games developers. - A scientific, data-driven approach to teaching mathematics - People here really care about the students who are using Sparx and want them to succeed - it's not about making a quick buck - We work closely with schools. Can work in education without being a teacher - Other companies in the same group/building (Oxygen House) have a diverse and interesting mix of social enterprise projects: smart cities, solar power, sustainable building... - Tasty lunches and home baking provided every day! - Fun company events, green travel scheme, all-round good culture

Minpunten

- Sparx is changing fast and seeing a few growing pains as it does, but nothing insurmountable. - I think working at Oxygen House has spoiled me for other jobs in the future.
