Pros

Historically strong leadership and sense of team within the organization. Leadership is fairly accessible.

Cons

Historically strong leadership and direction when it came to strategy. However when faced with a crisis leadership is very lacking and decision making takes an extremely long time. Definitely need to understand the market and employees worth, have enormous attrition rate that some leaders fail to acknowledge, which is absolutely ridiculous. Praise accountability however there hasn’t been any for quite awhile and there needs to be serious overhaul or will continue to lose employees.

Pros

Great company and good people. Good benefits. Good quality culture.

Cons

As with many jobs, there are some more difficult jobs where it is hard to retain good people. As an example, there are several entry/medium level positions that are critical but do not pay well.

Pros

Even with current political tensions, LZ is still allowing cultural programs which support diversity and inclusion throughout the organization. Working in a lab setting and having supportive management that understand work life balance is beneficial as long as the work is getting done. Supportive of using company time to volunteer in community investment. Most employees are supportive and willing to help each out.

Cons

No opportunity for advancement. Low yearly pay increases, with too much focus on pushing individuals to do more as “personal development”. Health benefit package is limited and costly, vacation promised isn’t always given, too many middle and upper management, with continued turnover before you even know who they are and what they do. Most scientist and engineers have no other working experience besides education and lack experience, which prevents opportunities for innovation. Co-ops have better opportunities than long term full time employees.
