'Setting for failure' spirit

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Location is great and facilities are cool too.

Cons

It is being ran like a huge corporate, everything is moving very slow or moving backward, the opposite of start up spirit, like it used to be. The local management: VP, EMs are not doing anything in order to change it, but they will cut you off if you won't stand the timeline. Directors come and go every few months. You can't win or innovate that way.

GoTo Response

LogMeIn has certainly grown rapidly over the last few years, and that growth isn’t always ideal for everyone. We strive to build a company for scale, and a big part of that is acting our size, which might not have the same “start-up” feel from years ago. Your local HRBP would welcome the opportunity to hear more about your concerns, feel free to connect on some of the local matters you address here.

Pros

OK benefits in terms of insurance, vacation, etc Lunch and learns Good interview process

Cons

Don't be fooled by the shiny veneer and little perks. Politics - development team structure went through a huge switch that made little sense after I joined. While most everyone in the office are friendly, the management - both upper and tech, are absolutely incompetent - ESPECIALLY remotely. Expectations are unclear, almost intentionally muddled, and remote team leaders are often just unresponsive, , even to questions pertaining to requirements of my goals, and internal structures.

GoTo Response

Thank you for being a part of our Montreal location. We apologize LogMeIn did not meet your career expectations & we wish you the best in your future endeavors. Your feedback has been shared with our Leadership team. Janavi
