Pros

LD Used to be a great and innovative company with many benefits, many very smart people, and a lot of leeway for creativity and innovation

Cons

- If you're a designer coming here, watch out! The design leadership is unforgiving, unethical, and will literally make you crazy. RUN AWAY. They have managed to overtake the entire product org and have run out strong product management folks and designers. - Design leadership has a massive ego and continues to ship products that are still not very good, despite running founding talent out of the place to replace with their cronies. - When one of the founding female CEO's departed, the company started going down fast. - The culture before with the previous design leadership was very supportive, innovative, talent was supported to grow and learn, and it was a great place to work. - Diversity is disappearing. - No growth - Overly hard interview and very judgmental environment
