Rewarding and Respectful - Senior IOS Developer Lumenalta Employee Review

1. Small to mid-size team which makes collaboration very easy. 2. Senior engineers always available to act as mentor

1. Nothing is completely perfect so I didn't see something really wrong. I learnt a lot.

remote work, so can work schedule around school runs. However, even though they say you can work from anywhere, in practice it's very frowned upon by the new management.

- bought by private equity, whose partners have no clue about running tech companies, and they cut all the benefits that made the company good, and changed the company culture - it's no longer a place you feel valued and can grow in. - they run a round of lay-offs a week before bonuses go out, so they won't have to pay their top producing talent, whom they have already told would be receiving bonuses. - They are also a bit dishonest on compensation, you have to pay close attention to your paychecks to make sure they are correct. This isn't a new thing under Private Equity for them, either, they've always done it. - they have always been very cheap, and have always hired purely based on cost, not talent. This is why they were off-shoring pioneers, since 2000. It was very frustrating having to pass over amazing candidates for jobs who were asking very fair salaries in order to choose people who were not at all or barely qualified simply because they'd do the job for much less. - similar vein to hiring unqualified but cheap people, most of the C-suite and top-level management had little to none management experience before the Private Equity brought them in, so they manage their teams very poorly. - The only person with any say in the company is the president, nobody else can do anything without his blessing.
