Pros

Fully remote and expectations are nothing above other companies within tech space

Cons

So many negative people especially within engineering who form their own clique and encourage people to negatively review the company, they even have their own group to complain to each other. Left because of how depressing they all are.

Pros

Great place to work. Huge earning potential. Strong focus on high performance and learning to better yourself. Genuinely exciting project in a great space.

Cons

Like any startup or scaleup, it's hard. Some cultural issues of what I can only say are lazy people but this seems to be improving now with management actively moving them on. Has been somewhat annoying in the past to see those performing poorly compensated the same as those who care/really try. Management has been too weak in the past, although seems to be improving now.

Pros

I joined because the mission felt real, the product was solving an actual problem, and there were a lot of smart people who genuinely cared about doing good work. The people have been the best part for me. There is a lot of talent here and it can be a really energising place to be. I have seen the company get clearer and more structured over time. Expectations feel better defined, there is more consistency than there used to be, and it feels less reactive. There is also more clarity on what good looks like and how you can grow, which makes a big difference in a start-up. It feels like the business has the support to keep improving, which gives it a more stable feel than a lot of companies at this stage.

Cons

It is still a start-up, so things move quickly and priorities can change. Not every team feels equally mature yet, so your experience may depend on where you land. The company has been through a lot of change, and that naturally takes time to settle across every team. If you want lots of certainty or a lot of hand-holding, this probably is not the place for you.

Thank you for taking the time to write this, and for the care and honesty that comes through in it. What stands out is that the things you value most, the people, the mission, the sense that the product is solving a real problem, are exactly what we want to be known for. It is genuinely good to hear that the talent and energy in the business still feels tangible to you day to day. That is something we work hard to protect as we scale. Your observation about the company getting more structured and clearer over time is something we recognise and are encouraged by. Defining what good looks like, building more consistency around feedback and growth, making those things feel real rather than just stated, that work is ongoing and we know it is not finished. Your point about maturity varying across teams is a fair one. The growth and maturity of teams is rarely linear, and leadership are acutely aware of that. The focus is on making sure the improvements already made in parts of the business are felt more consistently everywhere. The honest framing of the cons is appreciated too. Fast-moving environments are not for everyone, and we would rather people know that going in. What we can keep working on is making sure that pace comes with enough clarity and support that it feels energising rather than unsettling. The advice to management is well taken, and it maps closely to where our own focus is. Thanks again for sharing this so thoughtfully; this is exactly the type of feedback that helps us to continue ensuring Lunio is a great place to work as we scale!
