Pros

Decent pay, ok benefits. I like talking with customers.

Cons

I don't like how when customers ask if we are the other more expensive Lightspeed software we aren't told to correct them. It feels misleading.

Hi there, I think you may have us confused with another Lightspeed as we don't employ anyone in Kentucky.

Pros

Great management team (direct report) Compensation is fair and bonuses attainable

Cons

Difficult to project long term future with company (layoffs every 6-9 months for 2 years straight) Some products seemingly being abandoned slowly.
