Pros

Management in this ever-growing company is good, and getting better. One bad apple has been removed and the company is flourishing as an outcome. LSI offers (and suggests) higher learning and to take advantage of educational courses. Full reimbursement is only one of the MANY benefits. 12 paid holidays per year. Who gets Presidents Day off? We do. Paid. Excellent benefits including medical and dental. And 2 bonuses for those who show their worth. But don't let the Pros confuse the hard work you have to do for LSI. It is a fast paced, high demand work environment. Often times you're working long hours. (10+) They recognize this and often buy food for you for your dedication. If you think of a black cloud, it will always pass. No job is perfect so if that black cloud arrives, it WILL go away and the sun will shine again. You can't expect to have great benefits, decent pay, and/or excellent PTO structure without earning it. If you're not willing to put in 100% all the time, don't apply here. And certainly don't throw a negative, CEO-bashing review when you didn't put in the work that was expected. Yes the turn around rate is high for some departments, but not all. Know your stuff and you'll be in great shape. You need to be able to produce from day 1. Its worth it!

Cons

Interdepartmental Communication is sadly inefficient. Lots of people working on the same projects and some things get lost in translation at times. A black cloud arrives sometimes...but it goes away relatively quickly. Don't let that scare you. Remember the Pros.

Pros

Good benefits, pay, and amenities.

Cons

Having spent several years here in engineering, I feel like I've gained a solid, realistic perspective on how the company actually operates, which is why I want to share this feedback. When I first started, the environment was great. It was defined by strong teamwork, genuine excitement about building new things, and a real willingness to teach each other. Over time, though, it feels like we've really lost that culture. Once you've been here long enough to see past the initial honeymoon phase, a few troubling trends become really obvious: 1. Extreme management politics: Too often, it feels like leadership sets up departments to compete instead of collaborate. It's incredibly frustrating to get caught in the middle of political turf wars between managers when you're just trying to focus on your work and complete a project. 2. Blame instead of root-cause problem solving: As engineers, we are trained to look at the root cause of a failure to fix the system. Unfortunately, the culture here prioritizes finding a scapegoat over finding a solution. This has created an environment where people are genuinely afraid to flag technical issues or speak up about risks because they're worried about retaliation. 3. Deep departmental divides: There is a real issue here with cliques. Instead of working as one team to build a great product, departments treat each other like rivals.
You see it every day-Quality and Production don't get along, and Engineering and Planning are constantly at odds, which makes things very inefficient.
