Good first job, not great for career growth

Business Outlook

Pros

LCS hires friendly people that are good coworkers. The company was able to continue a hiring surge through the pandemic, and their products are large and interesting to work on.

Cons

- Management almost actively discourages ideas and suggestions. - If you're not one of the developers/managers that have been at the company for 8+ years, you won't be told why decisions are being made, and your input won't be asked for. - Tools, technologies, and processes are either outdated, inefficient, or incorrectly implemented. It's frequently all three. Version control, code reviews, and DevOps are all a daily source of frustration. - Many best practices are not implemented at all, and some important ones are implemented incorrectly. Management doesn't want to hear about it or fix it, making the applications slow and buggy. - Technical "training" consists entirely of a Pluralsight account and sparse Confluence documents. Standards are not communicated across teams working on the same product. - Company policies are not flexible and sometimes communicate general distrust of employees. Developers are allowed only 5 days a year to work from home, and that's only after they've been at the company for a year. Otherwise you have to take PTO if you're sick, need to be home for a package, etc. - Overall, if you're looking for a first job or just want a friendly, nice place to work LCS is a good option. If you've ever worked for a modern company before or want the skills to do so, you'll likely be frustrated here.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. LCS actively seeks feedback from employees through annual surveys, one-on-one meetings with HR, group meetings with the President/CEO, etc. We are always looking for ways to improve our products and our processes; however, we are a tech company and we move quickly and changes happens fast. LCS has an award winning training program through Rent Manager University which provide top notch training on our products and services. We supplement that training by providing all developers with a license to PluralSight where they can continue to expand their programming skills and even take courses on technologies they aren't currently working with. LCS offers all employees the ability to choose between working in the office 5 days a week with additional flex time or working in the office 2 days a week and working remote 3 days a week. This allows our employees the flexibility they need at home while still keeping them connected to the LCS culture.

Thanks for your feedback. All of our employees have been working 100% remote for the last 15 months. As we transition back to the office employees have been given the option to return to work 5 days a week with additional work from home flexibility or to select to return to the office 2 days a week and work remote 3 days a week. We believe this gives our employees the options they need to find the right work/life balance for them.
