Great colleagues, but burnout and constant chaos prevail

Pros

The people. Some really great people work there still and used to work there.

Cons

Burnout is everywhere. Priorities constantly change, expectations are unclear, and people are expected to just figure it out. Deadlines are missed because teams are pulled in too many directions at once. Layoffs and restructures happen so often that uncertainty becomes part of the job. Decisions feel rushed, communication is poor, and every new change seems to create more work and more stress. Benefits have steadily gotten worse while workloads continue to increase, and meaningful raises are hard to come by despite taking on more responsibility. Leadership says a lot of good things, but it's hard to take those messages seriously when people are constantly stretched thin, burned out, and worried about what's coming next.

Pros

Got paid money, Brief moments of recognitions such as employee of the year.

Cons

Wasn't given credit for moving mountains and training dozens of engineers. CTO was not a truthful man, and has since been show the door, thankfully. Unscrupulous HR practices at the time included fake work reviews, where i was given glowing reviews, but not a raise, which was at odds with their declared system.

A Company in Rapid Decline

Pros

There are some genuinely great coworkers, although I would be extremely cautious and do not trust anyone from the South Carolina office.

Cons

Lumistry used to be a company that myself, and several others, were genuinely proud to work for. The culture, mission, remote flexibility, benefits, and employees made it a great environment, and there were truly amazing people throughout the organization before so many were fired or pushed out. Unfortunately, everything changed once new leadership took over last summer. Since Tim became CEO and Brent became CFO, the company has rapidly declined due to what feel like short-sighted, reactive, and self-serving decisions that have gutted the company internally. Institutional knowledge has been lost, morale has completely plummeted, turnover has skyrocketed, and favoritism and nepotism appear to matter more than actual performance or experience. Communication from leadership lacks transparency, trust across the organization has deteriorated, and employees are expected to take on more work with less support while leadership continues making damaging decisions that seem disconnected from the reality employees face every day. I personally felt undervalued, targeted, and deeply unappreciated despite the amount of effort and contribution I gave to the company. There was little meaningful opportunity for growth, recognition for hard work felt nonexistent, and the overall environment became exhausting and discouraging. Insurance costs increased significantly, PTO and benefits became recurring concerns, and many employees no longer felt secure or respected. It is genuinely sad watching what was once a strong company with a meaningful mission turn into an unstable and toxic workplace. At this point, Tim and Brent seem to be doing an excellent job driving the company into the ground, and from my perspective, Lumistry is not heading in a positive direction whatsoever. DO NOT waste your time dealing with this company and STAY CLEAR from working with any of these people.
