Pros

Flexible work schedule, and fully remote work is a plus! I've had a good experience in my time with LegiStorm, and look forward to seeing the company continue to grow. Very generous benefits.

Cons

Not all internal systems are organized, but this is something management is currently improving.

Pros

It’s remote, but that’s it.

Cons

High turnover and flawed evaluation process This is a high-turnover environment with a very low tolerance for ramp time. New hires are expected to perform almost immediately, and decisions about capability are made far too early to be meaningful. In my experience, evaluation begins while you are still learning the system, which leads to premature and low-quality judgments. The process lacks structure. There is no clear separation between training and evaluation, no defined improvement window, and no consistent feedback loop that allows someone to correct mistakes and demonstrate progress. Instead, small early errors can be over-weighted and turned into broad conclusions about performance. The culture is extremely detail-focused to the point of being counterproductive, creating pressure during onboarding rather than supporting development. This approach seems to result in a cycle of hiring and quickly replacing people rather than building a stable, effective team. If you are looking for a thoughtful onboarding process, fair evaluation, or long-term stability, this is likely not the right environment. In hindsight, I regret choosing this opportunity over other options, as the experience did not match the level of professionalism or structure I expected.
