Lessen reviews

If you're even remotely considering joining Lessen, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST. I urge you to reconsider and run in the opposite direction as fast as you can. This company is an absolute train wreck, and getting involved with them is essentially signing up for a one-way ticket to utter bewilderment. First and foremost, let's talk about the so-called "leadership" at Lessen. The CEO is the epitome of cluelessness. This person couldn't lead a successful team even if their life depended on it. Their complete lack of vision and ability to steer the company in a coherent direction is nothing short of astonishing. The CEO spends more time making empty promises and spewing corporate jargon than actually addressing the real issues facing the company. It's no wonder the entire organization is in shambles. They're more interested in attending fancy conferences and posing for photo ops than understanding the intricacies of their own business. (See their LinkedIn, it’s all they have.) (See the Google reviews of their corporate office as the truth is there.) Speaking of business practices, Lessen should be called out for what it truly is—a company built on deceit and unethical behavior. They have mastered the art of cheating their vendors. Cut corners and deliver subpar service—that seems to be their motto. Their contracts are filled with hidden clauses designed to screw over any service provider naive enough to sign on the dotted line. Honesty and integrity are foreign concepts here. If you value your time, money, and sanity, steer clear of any dealings with Lessen. As if the incompetent leadership and unethical practices weren't bad enough, the internal culture at Lessen is absolutely toxic. The product team operates as a boys' club, where cronyism and favoritism run rampant. It's a disgusting fraternity atmosphere where only those who schmooze with the right clique make it ahead. Don't even think about voicing a different opinion or, heaven forbid, being a woman trying to break in—you're in for a rude awakening. Meritocracy is a joke here; it's all about who you know and how well you can play the political game. People working here are overworked, undervalued, and micromanaged to death. Employee turnover is through the roof, and for good reason. They have conducted no less than 5 rounds of layoffs since late 2022. The company's approach to work-life balance is to eliminate the "life" part altogether. The only thing you'll gain from working at Lessen is stress, demoralization, and a deep resentment for wasted potential. If you decide to join Lessen after reading this, you are either extremely desperate (ask yourself why), or you don’t care about your career at all.
