I miss the old LP, I'm so grateful for my time here with so many amazing professionals, but I cant honestly uphold the LP core values and not post this.
My team is the same size as it was 4 years ago, but with 4x(+) the client load.
Agency pay. The pay is industry minimum for most if not all back office positions, sales doesn't seem bad if you like hustle culture. Raises barely beat inflation or some years are skipped entirely ( while LP nets record profits ).
You can work for for years as an exceeds expectations employee, a new person will get hired on at your same pay inflation adjusted. Its disheartening when a new 1-2 year employee is making nearly the same as their 5 & 6+ year seniors.
Management is very focused on the process and planning stage, less on the execution of that process and enabling LP'ers to be effective for the clients.
Restricted career mobility. At LP if you want to cross over to an internal position outside of your department you face a pay reset to the pay you stared at with LP, but with your current benefits. I've never seen this anywhere else and have had several great friends leave LP because of it.
Being from your superiors college, or being buddy with them will beat out actual work effectiveness and experience on most teams when it comes to organizational opportunities.
