Pros

Competitive salary, colleagues are nice

Cons

- Sudden Layoffs Without Notice During my year at LemFi, the company went through several rounds of layoffs. In the penultimate round, leadership claimed that those affected had been notified of performance issues in advance and failed to resolve them. This explanation seemed reasonable, and management explicitly assured us that unless we received performance warnings, our jobs were safe. I felt secure, especially since all my previous performance reviews had been overwhelmingly positive. However, that security vanished when I, along with many other well performing colleagues, was suddenly laid off without any prior notice. We were granted only the legal minimum compensation, and our system accesses was terminated immediately. - Chaotic Culture and Shifting Priorities. The day-to-day work environment is highly chaotic, with priorities shifting constantly. Employees often lack clarity regarding their specific scope of responsibilities, leading to each sub-team working on their very own way. Furthermore, upper management fails to define clear strategic goals, constantly wavering between rushing features out the door or sacrificing speed to focus on quality. - Lack of benefits. As I already mentioned salary level is above average, it's being compensated by lack of proper medical insurance and lack of common IT company benefits that software engineers commonly used to have.

Pros

The people, the mission, and the culture. There’s a real sense of purpose and ownership at LemFi. The pace is fast (sometimes chaotic in a good way), which keeps things exciting and pushes me to be creative, solve problems, and actually build things that make an impact. There’s strong autonomy, supportive leadership, and lots of collaboration across teams.

Cons

The pace can occasionally make priorities shift quickly, so you need to be adaptable. Some processes are still evolving as the company scales, which can be challenging if you prefer structure and predictability.
