Pros

Lab used to be a really great place to work, smart, talented people who worked hard in an inclusive friendly environment, but they have mostly left or have been pushed out by new management in recent years, there are some good people remaining.

Cons

Design and Product teams are ruled by manipulation, fear, and retribution. Consistently told to lie to clients. Since the former CEO left it is turning into an offshore company. Racist, sexist undertones from the parent company which is very disturbing to witness. Zero communication during COVID.

Pros

Hiring is well-gated, so you'll work with smart people. Projects are exclusively in finance so it's a great place to gain exposure in that industry. You operate with a good amount of autonomy.

Cons

It's a consulting company, so engineers are only valuable if they're billable. That means your success is tied to someone else's ability to secure a pipeline of work for you, or your own ability to upsell at your engagement - which may or may not be up to you no matter what you do. There isn't a dedicated sales team at Lab, so this can get spotty. Upper management's presence is felt in seasons - non-existant for months at a time, all over everything the next. They were nowhere to be found as AI got rolled out massively in 2026 and we got caught without a strategy and action plan - either for leveraging internally or for pivoting our model.
