Pros

People are passionate about the work they are involved with, and teamwork between departments is great. Help on any project or customer related questions are always promptly given and answered.

Cons

Executive leadership does not develop employee skills to grow the company. When employees ask about new opportunities available or new ideas that could be great breakthroughs, they are given vague responses or ignored. Some individualism and old-style Silicon Valley corporate thinking still in the company. Executive leadership does not acknowledge employee contributions, they instead take the credit.

Pros

Nice people at the lower levels. Part of VA is nice to work and live in if you get a high enough salary to live in one of the nicer neighborhoods.

Cons

Top leadership is integrated part of the Boeing leadership that is all over the news and in Congressional hearings as toxic, incompetent, retaliatory, lying, etc. Toxic work environment to be in and team works in a state of constant fear of leadership. They are so busy with in-fighting and figuring out who they can throw under the bus, instead of properly managing their teams, that engineers are leaving or engineers planning to leave. The reputation of leadership is so bad in the industry they cannot find people to replace the ones that have left or have indicated they want to leave for key roles. Every week constant threat of layoffs because of leadership running the company into the ground. Even our senior engineers are trying to leave now. Run.

Pros

I enjoy working at LR even though it continues to have a hard time growing itself. Now that LR has moved from CA to VA it is doing a good job trying to hire the right fit people for the jobs needed. Most people hired are great and have a really good attitude towards the job. The product is amazing and has so much potential. Management has the right idea and a good take on where the future for the product is heading. I enjoy the comradery we are starting to build around our brand. Everyone identifies and is proud of their contributions. This day in age what matters to me the most is that the company that I work for cares about me and what I can add. I feel my manager appreciates my input and values my contributions. Benefits are good and I have great flexibility so I can take care of things at home when needed etc. Having every other Friday off is the best. 9/80 rules and vacation policy is generous. In big companies often you are just another drop in the bucket. At LR you are part of a small dedicated team and you have direct impact. I like that.

Cons

Being a start up company is difficult. Often times things appear uncoordinated and priorities shift often. You have to be willing to do that and work in that kind of environment. Processes need to be put in place to create order. The company is actively working on that currently. A big part of the company is working remote which brings challenges but it is a great benefit. You have to be self motivated and make sure you are visible or you get forgotten. At HQ in Herndon VA and at the HI location this is is easier because people are local and have face to face time more often.
