Pros

Lantern has a great mission and sustainable business model, which isn't something you see every day in the world of healthcare startups. I genuinely like and trust our leadership team and their vision for the company. We have an amazing team of hard-working people at every level. The marketing team is very supportive of one another and we have an internal culture committee that has launched initiatives to help us get to know each other. I've really enjoyed their programming. Pay is good, and benefits are decent and improving--HR has been listening to employee feedback which is great.

Cons

Like many startups, Lantern can be disorganized and reactionary, but this has improved over the past year. Workloads can be heavy at times, but many in leadership respect work-life boundaries and I believe this is getting better as well.

Pros

• The mission is genuinely compelling and the product has potential to help members • Many talented, experienced people who care about quality and outcomes • Opportunities to move fast and learn quickly • Significant room to improve the brand and member experience if the organization commits to it

Cons

• Executive leadership sets the tone, and the culture reflects it. • Expectations are often high, but priorities and direction change frequently, creating unnecessary stress and rework. • Limited trust in the experts being hired. • Strategic thinking is not valued in practice. Leadership seems to want more hands to execute, not partners who can shape direction. • Brand is inconsistent and fragmented. Brand audits and leadership interviews were conducted, but the insights don’t translate into a clear, differentiated, member-first brand system. • The member experience feels disconnected across touchpoints. The mobile app, web portal, and website don’t align in messaging, voice, or visual design, which weakens trust and cohesion. • The organization operates reactively. Work is often driven by the latest urgent request rather than a strategic plan, making it hard to build sustained momentum.
