Pros

The people that work here are the reason I love Lumanu. Lumanu does an exceptional job at hiring hard-working, kind, intelligent people. Whenever I have a personal matter I have to take care of, my coworkers are understanding and happy to cover for me. It's amazing that they've sustained this strong of a company culture as a remote company. The company is passionate about learning and encourages you to do so. There's tons of room to grow professionally and potential for upward mobility. Transparency from leadership gives you insight into the big picture. It's interesting to hear where the company is headed, and feel like you're part of the reason the company is successful. Also, we are all encouraged to speak up and challenge decisions. It doesn't feel like there's a company hierarchy - it feels as though we all have a say and have contributed to create the company Lumanu is today. Unlimited PTO!

Cons

We are encouraged to work during off hours or do research/etc. in our free time. During peer reviews, this was one of the factors listed in a category we were rated on and I believe is a mindset we need to change. As a start up, mostly manual processes are used and pay could be better for the work expected. We implement TONS of processes, which don't always do what they're intended to. Sometimes I feel like the processes just add on extra tasks, rather than provide value

Pros

So much opportunity to make a difference! Literally anyone in any part of the organization can make a game-changing impact. If you have a good idea, you can see it happen. Very gratifying.

Cons

Lumanu could’ve been so great… but most of leadership is catastrophically ransacking the culture of any redeeming qualities. - Extremely condescending leadership. - Little managerial accountability. - C-suite won’t hesitate to throw each other under the bus, publicly. - CEO is nice and well-intentioned, but has Shiny Object Syndrome. You’ll work 70 hours trying to keep up with The Next Big Idea. - Leadership will absolutely, with no remorse, request evening, weekend, and holiday work from you. No additional comp. I was called on my birthday PTO for non-urgent work. - The Engineering team is spread so thin they do careless work. High failure rates on the product, so good luck if you are client facing at all. - Bare bones benefits. Not conducive to supporting a family.
