Pros

C-level are all very friendly people. The trainers are superb. Overall, the best part of the company is the people. Lots and lots of smart, motivated people looking to make a difference in the world.

Cons

A completely disorganized, back-stabbing kind of place. The people who get ahead here are the people who suck up to the managers the most. In this role, management hopes that when they tell you to jump, you jump. The pay structure is insulting. This is a non-commissioned sales environment, meaning the value you provide is completely irrelevant to them. You will be paid little, hourly. There are no incentives whatsoever to secure reservations for the product. No commission, no bonuses, nothing. Mediocre hourly pay in a retail sales job. This job made it impossible to exist in any meaningful way outside of the job. You will be expected to be on-call, answering phone calls/teams messages from clients and coworkers at all hours of the day, even on days off, on your personal phone. Your clients don't know that you have Tuesday and Sunday off, how could they? It's not Monday-Friday, 9-5 either. You'll work all weekend and get Monday and Thursday off (or Tuesday and Sunday). Work schedules change from one week to the next. Some days you'll close up shop and then be expected to open up the very next morning, after having just worked a few days in a row. There is no consistency whatsoever, making regular sleep routines impossible. I got coronavirus on the job, had to quarantine for 10 days and was treated like I just returned from some glamorous vacation when I got out of quarantine and returned to work. Blatant favoritism and lack of promotions from within both drive morale into the ground. Stay as far away from this place as you can if you're looking to find a good place to work and make money in sales. There is none of that here.

Pros

High pay, good benefits, fully paid parental leave (8 weeks)

Cons

Dishonesty in hiring process and inconsistent schedule: I was told I would be working 4pm to 1AM five days a week, somewhat manageable with a family. They switched my schedule immediately after hiring (before even going to shift) to 5pm to 5Am, then 6pm to 2:30am, then 6pm to 5 am, then back to 5pm to 5am. I never actually worked the schedule they said I would, which really messed up my home life. On top of this, they will expect you to work Saturdays and sometimes sundays on short notice, sometimes on a Friday you’ll find out that you’re working on the weekend, full shifts, 12 hours. The work itself? I felt completely unchallenged. My title was maintenance technician, but I can’t actually think of much real maintenance we did. Recovery technician would be a more accurate job title, and it was dull. I came from a very technical background, expecting very technical work at Lucid, but it ended up being mostly resetting sensors and resetting FANUC robots, then resuming the line. The work culture sucks. Night shift was brutal, the managers (one especially) try very hard to please their superiors at the cost of their relationship with technicians. You will have “one on one” interviews every month where it’s actually two managers interrogating you and letting you know about some vague training plan they have for you, for some of the most menial tasks I’ve ever done in a decade of manufacturing.
