Pros
- Fast growing start up feel despite getting larger and larger every day
- Incredible response to COVID (WFH, provides resources to help make your home comfortable during this pandemic, no pressure to return to office)
- Amazing culture, avoids the trap of feeling like a cult while maintaining a tight knit feeling of friendship across teams, offices, and countries where Lemonade employees live
- The giveback is an incredible aspect of the business model
- Has consistently landed on the right side of history with social issues like gun control, covid, and the current protests (the CEO gave his blessing for all who wish to go out and participate in protests or vigils for George Floyd, no PTO or formal time off was required to be taken which is incredible)
- Exciting work environment, so much to learn and so much changing that you have the ability to influence on a daily basis
Cons
- There are some growing pains which is natural. We went from around 80 employees when I started to now over 400 (25% of whom actually joined post WFH). Big companies have a different feel than small companies but Lemonade works because of the people and leadership from top to bottom know this and have managed to keep things Lemonadey.
