Great company and mission

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The company's mission is to help people, which is a great change from many other businesses in the Bay Area. We are constantly innovating, literally creating a new consumer field, and because of this there is lots of room to grow and lead new projects. Lumos also believes heavily in a work / life balance, allowing unlimited vacation time, paying for gym memberships, and more. A mostly flat organization allows a lot of mobility and respect for people no matter where they are.

Cons

The flat organization can sometimes work against the company, making it more difficult to commit to decisions. As a result, sometimes Lumos moves too slowly when it needs to be fast. Since mostly everything the company does is data driven, this can slow things down further.

Broken management: lack of recognition or feedback

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

- Free lunches most of the days, but expect to spend most of your week in lunch meetings - Flexible hours (typical office hours 10:30am to 7:30pm) - Unlimited PTO

Cons

- Complete lack of feedback from management - Broken management skills (increasing employee morale doesn't seem to be a priority) - Very poor to no employee recognition for hard work - Cliquey culture, much favoritism given to the "popular" kids makes it hard to advance in one's career/get promoted
