Thanks for your review. We do have an incredible culture and are always looking for new ways to nurture it. I hear you - targets are challenging, so changing them can certainly throw people into a tailspin. We're actively working to build a consistent process in order to minimize that. Thanks again!

Thanks for leaving a review! We're glad to see all the positive things you enjoy about working here. Our talent is everything to us, and we wouldn't be here today without everyone's passion and drive. We can't thank our employees enough. We do move fast, and have experienced our share of growing pains, but we've learnt from our mistakes, and take it day by day. Thanks again for your feedback - we take it to heart!

Pros

Great environment, everyone is friendly and willing to help when you need it, the effort put in hiring people who fit in and collaborate with each other really pays off. First thing I do when I get to work is sing (ambient music is amazing). The policies are strict when they need to, yet flexible when you need to. Lots of growth (in a bit less than a year, I have seen all the original members of my team grow to a different position). Location is amazing. I feel really proud to be part of the Lightspeed family. The benefits are awesome (Insurance, Bixi, Opus Card, Gym, coffee and bagels every day... )

Cons

Nothing to put here. Really.
