Pros

The people at Lucid are great to work with & the culture is amazing. The work life balance is great as well. Its a good place to get started in your career & get some experience but not a great place to stay long term. The company is not transparent with company financials at all. No information is provided on how the company is doing. Despite being frugal & profitable, Lucid laid off 7% of the company last year

Cons

The compensation is very low & so is the equity. They have also cut back on a lot of benefits lately.

Pros

- Very strong mentorship program - Very nice people - Some VERY good engineers, PMs, and designers

Cons

- Pay isn't competitive outside of Utah (but hey, at least we're hiring) - Like most other companies at our size, your success and satisfaction largely depend on the team you're on - Sales and product/eng could probably be better aligned to inform product decisions - Like most other SAAS companies, we're investing A LOT into AI. This could bite us in the future (I personally think we're in a bubble, and the consequences of over-investing will be very painful once it bursts)
