Pros

During my time at Lightspeed I experienced a great environment when with my peers. We all got along great and were encouraged to build strong working relationships which helped. Regular socials and outings contributed to the sense of belonging within my team.

Cons

The goalpost was moved every month. New targets and angles were forced upon us meaning it was difficult to achieve anything meaningful. I was initially welcomed into a healthy working environment but I was slowly but surely encouraged by management to work beyond the hours contractually agreed and made to feel like if I didn’t I was not being a “team player”. After training and induction all ideas of work-life balance were thrown out the window due to unrealistic targets and new expectations from management. The paycheck might seem good during the training/onboarding period but as the goalpost moves you end up not taking home what you expect due to new targets. During my employment, I encountered what I perceived as a relaxed attitude toward drug and alcohol abuse. Others may have different experiences, but this was mine.
