Pros

Amazing tech. Some brilliant workers. Solid perks.

Cons

HR lacks knowledge and compassion. Executives often lack basic communication skills. Saying you care about people, but not actually valuing your employees. Lack of feedback. Employees hear through gossip what their boss thinks of their work, but no actual reviews.

Thank you for the feedback. With this pace of growth, it's bound to come with growing pains. It's a big reason Luminar brought me on to the team to help us grow our culture to fully realize the potential of our team and ensure we're as focused on people as much as we have on our product. I’m passionate about helping people realize the full potential and be encumbered to do their best work as we scale this technology to drive the future of transportation. We’re looking for feedback and ideas as we evolve and can reach us here at feedback@luminartech.com anytime. Thanks, Tami
