Pros

I like that the leadership team really anchors to the analogy “get the right people on the bus, in the right seats.” I’ve benefited from their commitment and flexibility in finding a role where I can perform best. It’s rare to find an organization that is as open to input and feedback as Lighthouse. I feel they/we are doing nearly all we can to keep everyone pulling in the same direction. The really low reviews I’ve seen don’t match my experience here over the last couple of years. I’ve seen (and felt) instances where people ended up in a role that didn’t work well but as a business that seems occasionally inevitable. Because most everyone at Lighthouse is intelligent and genuine, I think if you like it here you can work with your managers to find a place to really grow and be valued. Other pros are all of our big news lately – we opened a UK and NY location, we now finally have a 401k match, and we’re making a bigger and bigger name for ourselves.

Cons

Some jobs, especially the project managers, have to work a ton of hours. Pay for the job titles seems low but I’ve heard it’s comparable to the industry. I could give 5 stars if we paid above market like some other very well-known tech companies in the area.

CEO and his hand picked cronies, good at taking care of each other at the cost of folks who do the actual work. Company stopped growing after current CEO took over the helm,
