Pros

Experience/Team/People -> Worked previously as auditor for 4 years. I experienced many different cultures in the workplace. Lightspeed is way ahead of them. In inclusivity, togetherness and all have shared common goals whilst working as an amazing team. I moved to Canada and started this position and it is the best decision I've made!

Cons

Nothing to comment here! Great company
