      Pros

      Fast paced company aiming high, achieving even higher. Work here already for 5 years and the experience has been, and still is amazing. Growing potential is very present.

      Cons

      The company is growing but scaled making the employees sometimes stretched. Not necessarily a bad thing, but not everyone can handle this pressure.

      Thanks for your review. We’re so happy to know that your Lightspeed experience has been consistent throughout the years. On that note, thank you for dedicating 5 years to us! Aiming very high comes with added pressure, and as you said, it’s not for everyone. We try to give everyone the right tools and resources in order to make an impact, and continuously grow. We’re always working on improving this, so your feedback there is valued. Thanks again!
