Pros
I originally came from an AdTech company – an industry which works fast to acquire other companies as I’ve come to notice during my career. In the previous company I worked for, multiple companies were quickly acquired by my former employer (3 companies within 2 years!). Because so many people were on-boarded as a result of these acquisitions, the culture itself became a non-priority and eventually, the culture itself died. Toward the end, I came in to work, did my work, and then left, which quickly became really depressing. When discovering Lighthouse, I found the company very different and seeing a company that focuses highly on culture was a true 180. I feel MUCH happier and while there is a lot of work to do, it doesn’t feel like work. It feels like I’m working with others toward something that will make the company better overall, which is all I ever really wanted. I honestly feel really grateful to find Lighthouse and excited to see my future here!
Cons
It can be incredibly busy, but I take it with a grain of salt. It endlessly feels interesting, not overwhelming. So not really a con I suppose.
