      Good not great

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Celebrates your wins, and a hybrid work environment is embraced.

      Cons

      You can fall off the radar if performance slips, training on product is short. You gotta do a lot on your own to find answers.

      Years of service thrown away by an insecure manager

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Brilliant benefits and informal working space for collaboration with colleagues who are in the same office. Great hybrid working options.

      Cons

      Beware the managers that come in as a clique of people. An attempted take over happened while I was there and I ended up being collateral damage for an insecure manager who wanted to assert their power.

      Lightspeed, not what it used to be

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Lightspeed attracts great people Good hardware benefits with hardware being supplied

      Cons

      Lightspeed has experienced loss to significant employees, either due to poor management or haphazard layoff planning. The company has also failed on several promises regarding the return to office, layoffs, and overall company operations. The CEO exhibits inconsistent decision-making and a lack of concern for both the team and the employees, often changing his mind on a weekly basis.
