Lawhive Reviews

Hello, and thank you your detailed feedback. Firstly, we’re deeply sorry to hear that this is your experience and impression of Lawhive. It’s the opposite of how we want our team to feel. We take all your points on board and take the feedback very seriously. As a rapidly growing Series A startup, we make no secret of the fact the work is demanding and we do our utmost to make this abundantly clear during the hiring process. Similarly, work priorities often need to adapt to feedback from users (in Lawhive’s case both lawyers and consumers), whilst still moving at pace and often in ambiguity. That said, we completely acknowledge your points on the importance of a structured engineering environment and culture, and we have taken huge strides to invest in these rapidly. In under 12 months, we’ve gone from a small, tight-knit startup team of under 20 people to a larger, more mature, but still high performing engineering function and we need to continue to do more to make this work for everyone in it. We are fortunate to have exceptional talent across our engineering team and we will continue to prioritise creating an environment where high performing engineers can thrive. We also know that a high growth, high performance startup environment is not the right fit for everyone, and we aim to have feedback conversations often to address any concerns. We’re rethinking an entire industry - that is demanding. We’ll continue to reflect on all of this and importantly we will continue to make changes to create an engineering culture we can all be proud of. Thanks again for your feedback, and we sincerely hope that you can get back to enjoying your craft!
