Pros

Nice building Some nice people Flexible work schedule

Cons

1. Terrible location and commute (unless you live in UTC area) 2. Constant reorgs and churn for no logical reason (all political/power based decisions) - you can count on one at least every 3-6 months so don’t get too comfortable - Constant chaos no processes in place (wild wild west mentality) - Internal competition encouraged and fostered - silo departments (your problem not mine attitude) 3. Does not pay market value 4. Does not appreciate current employees 5. No career development path for employees 6. No growth opportunity 7. Company has tremendous amount of technical debt and has very poor technical leadership team 8. Low morale company-wide 9. political envrioment (be careful who you trust) 10. Honesty is not rewarded but punished and looked upon as being negative - company has a “if you don’t like then leave” mentality - talent is always replaceable and not valued or appreciated 11. Worst leadership team I have ever worked for -No vision - No guidance - No clear definition of roles and responsibilities - Internally compete against one another vs. looking at what is best for the company as whole 12.Company cannot focus on getting anything completed/accomplished - Constant changes of vision and priority which causes chaos and churn 13. No incentives for employees anymore - No stocks anymore - Raises are minimal - No career development of talent - No budget for continued training or education

Pros

Great customers, innovative technology, new leadership is focused on right things. Love the new DRIVE company values.

Cons

A con for some (but pro for most): Competitive industry means lots of change. You need to like working hard and moving fast.

Pros

Hard to tell at this stage

Cons

The senior leadership at this company, particularly the CEO, continues a pattern from his previous roles/companies of prioritizing the hiring of friends and family members. A quick review of his prior company on LinkedIn reveals the same issues persisted there, with little apparent concern for addressing them. This practice creates significant resentment and a clear (and perceived) lack of fairness among employees. The CEO has historically dismissed these concerns with laughter at Lytx and in past companies which ultimately contributed to his downfall. It is likely only a matter of time before this Glassdoor account is censored. Nepotism of this nature serves as a major distraction and has a broadly negative impact on company culture, morale, and performance. As a side note, the lynx representative who responds to Glassdoor reviews comes across as dismissive and condescending. With the current leadership in place, this company will continue to face serious challenges in attracting and retaining talent.

Thank you for your feedback. We take concerns about fairness seriously and are surprised at your sentiment. We do encourage employee referrals, including qualified family members, because great talent often comes through trusted networks, but referrals do not guarantee employment. Every candidate is evaluated through the same hiring process, and hiring decisions are based on qualifications, experience, and the needs of the business. We remain committed to building a high-performing team and fostering a culture where employees can succeed.
