Pros

Salary was good, quality team had a great atmosphere.

Cons

Luminar takes too long to interview and once they are ready to offer the salary is usually higher than norm pulling people from good jobs at established companies to lay them off with no regard of what they walked away from. Their severance package is extremely low for managers and above.
