Cons

I have been an employee at Lightspeed for 10 years and I have seen a drastic change in the company's culture. The company used to be a fun and fulfilling place to work, where management truly cared about the well-being and career growth of their employees. The atmosphere was positive and it was a pleasure to come to work each day. However, in recent years, the company's new vision has completely transformed the culture into a cutthroat and profit-driven environment. The management has become insensitive and only cares about increasing profits, disregarding the happiness and well-being of their employees. It's heartbreaking to see the hard work of previous managers and the positive culture they built, all go to waste. While I understand that a company must evolve and change to grow, Lightspeed could have done so in a much better and more considerate way. I would not recommend this company as a place to work to anyone.

Hello, thanks for taking the time to review and share your experience. This is absolutely not the experience we want for our employees and we'd really appreciate further information about this to be able to address these concerns. If you're open to it, we encourage you to reach out to your manager or People Business Partner to set up a time to talk. Or if you'd prefer a confidential email, then we have the following where you can write to us: people@lightspeedhq.com. We really welcome your ideas and feedback, and hope to hear from you directly soon. In the meanwhile, thank you for your contributions to Lightspeed so far in your 10+ years so far--what a tenure! We're happy to hear some of the office perks are mentioned as "Pros" for you, as well as the unlimited paid time off. We're aiming for a world-class employee experience and to be a world-class place to work, and want to hear if there's been any shift in your experience since submitting this review in January.
