They hire and then lay off constantly. I was hired back in 10/07 and was laid off in 7/08, as were many others. They also outsource to other countries which I'm assuming is part of why I lost my job with them. I ALMOST quit my other job, but thank goodness I didn't!!

Dont let the name fool you. SPI America is owned by an overseas company, Philippines as I recall. They dont lay off as often as they should based on low work volume. Managers come and go about every 6 months. I worked there for almost 4 years and saw 5 managers come and go. Work load had dropped tremendously, and when I asked my account manager for a secondary, which I had but they LEFT the company, I was informed there was not enough work to go around so a secondary was out of the question. That was for over 6 months. I hear that not much has changed, but all in all when the work was there it was a good place to work, in my opinion anyway.

SPI - very, very tired

I used to work there. I would run very quickly in the opposite direction. They are the VERY worst place I have EVER worked, and I have worked for some pretty bad places.

I thought SPI was an Indian company - imanmt2

that specialized in database management and software development and launching, utilizing/contracting with Indians back "home" for writing, QA, and project management they also have a medical transcription concern.

They do, on occasion, bring the Indians over here to facilitate working with American leads/project managers, etc., from India. You know, "get the feel of it".

Does anybody know what SPI stands for? I'm not sure it stands for anything really.

I never run out of work, as a matter of fact, they call me almost daily to work extra. I've never had any problems with them, I do my job and do it well and they leave me alone. The only ones I ever hear from are the help desk, and again, it is always to work extra. They often send e-mails offering OT for certain accounts that tend to get backed up quite often. The pay is good and they offer incentive for both PT and FT. Just curious, did you get a job with the ...

10 years ago today, I was sitting at my desk working as usual. I get a phone call from my boyfriend (2nd in command of PD here in LV) frantically asking me if I'm okay. I'm like what? I'm working why wouldn't I be? He asked I if had heard anything, to which I again said no, I am working. He told me to turn on the TV. I did and was absolutely HORRIFIED! That conversation, that moment, that realization of what had happened completely ch ...
