      A good place to work

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Lightspeed is a good place to work with s lot of experienced professionals. The team that I work with is easy-going team. The level of work is not that much as well. If you're not looking for be a team lead or manager then it's s nice place to work, for sure.

      Cons

      Hard to be promoted or have salary increased. Internal processes are not transparent and majority of the time you'll be ghosted, so be happy in your current position and don't expect be promoted.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Quite good working environment - Depends on your team, but most of it won't have any tough deadline - You can share your opinions and ideas openly

      Cons

      - Probably not a very good salary compared to the market - I can't say it has the best opportunities because the salary adjustment doesn't seem to reflect the market.

      Good job with many opportunities

      Senior software developer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * If you are motivated you can propose your ideas and likely you will be able to implement it. * Flexible approach from management if you have some personal requirements. * Pretty good collaboration among teams, people always will help you

      Cons

      * Return to the office policy. You have to spend part of the time in the office. * If you're not motivated and don't have interesting ideas then you will do some boring stuff.
