Looking Up - Software Engineer Lumistry Employee Review

Lumistry has made meaningful progress over the last several months. Leadership is actively working to break down silos, improve cross-functional collaboration, and create better alignment across teams. There is a noticeable sense of momentum in the business, with new products, partnerships, and initiatives creating optimism about the future.

there is a lot happening at once. Priorities continue to evolve as the business scales, which can create competing demands on teams. Continued focus on prioritization and communication

The people. Some really great people work there still and used to work there.

Burnout is everywhere. Priorities constantly change, expectations are unclear, and people are expected to just figure it out. Deadlines are missed because teams are pulled in too many directions at once. Layoffs and restructures happen so often that uncertainty becomes part of the job. Decisions feel rushed, communication is poor, and every new change seems to create more work and more stress. Benefits have steadily gotten worse while workloads continue to increase, and meaningful raises are hard to come by despite taking on more responsibility. Leadership says a lot of good things, but it's hard to take those messages seriously when people are constantly stretched thin, burned out, and worried about what's coming next.
