Pros

I’ve worked at tech companies large and small - including some with renowned cultures - and can honestly say that Lyric is up there with the best of them. I love working here because: 1. The team is diverse and we have a lot of fun (happy hours, offsites, animated gifs and emojis galore). We’ve got people from all walks of life and are bringing more and more super talented teammates onboard every day. 2. Our customers already love our "Creative Suites" and we have so many opportunities to make their experience even better. 3. In order to deliver truly delightful and personalized experiences to our guests in a scalable and profitable way, we’re working on lots of hard problems and building a ton of interesting technology. 4. The market opportunity is huge and we’re growing like gangbusters (month-over-month growth is in the double digit percentages). 5. There’s a ton of transparency, particularly in terms of our performance (far more than I’ve seen at prior companies). This also allows us to get more stuff done, faster. 6. Our CEO, Andrew, is one of the most empathetic, inspirational and energetic CEOs I've ever encountered. With the way we’re growing, the team we're building, the quality of our products and everything that’s on the horizon, it truly feels like we have the opportunity to re-define the home-away-from-home experience for millions of people.

Cons

There were a couple of areas in the company with inexperienced managers that resulted in some unhappy people. However, this has now been addressed, enabling great new leaders to take their place.

Pros

I love working with my team. Hands down, the group we have gathered to work together is great. I love the many different kinds of brains in the room. I learn something new everyday, and no one shames me for something I do not yet know. So far, we all bring each other up. Mgmt is very open and transparent. I see room and much possibility for my own growth and progress. I see much action behind many company aspirations as we grow. We get better every quarter, at least a little, at everything (from my POV).

Cons

Startup life moves fast. Pains come with growth. I think anyone who works here or who is interested in working here needs to come with some appreciation for how startup life is... breaking the mold means balancing your own expectations. The few things that irk me right now are literally because we are growing and in-process of moving from scrappy to standards and best practices. I'm vague about them because I think they are all getting better. Management is putting great tools in place - some of those tools are people, and I think we are hiring very well.
