Save Yourself the Trouble - Lighting Designer LUMA Lighting Design Employee Review

My colleagues were talented, thoughtful, and pleasant to be around. The office is beautiful (and healthy!). There are fun activities and a generally comfortable work environment.

The management has a lot of work to do. They do not value anyone who is different from them. In order to succeed, you have to fit into their rigid, ego-driven expectations. There is no open communication, misleading feedback, and clear bias. The company claims to be triple bottom line, valuing people, planet, and profit equally. In reality, it feels more like profit, profit, profit.

Talented coworkers and some decent project work.

Bad management that over works and burns out their employees. Does not recognize the hard work and talent that they have. Management does not do a good job of supporting their staff. Used to be a great/fun place to work with a great team and good management, but over the years it's gone downhill and only gotten worse with the new people in charge. Focus is no longer to design great lighting for everyone regardless of the project. It's now purely focused on profits (for upper management bonuses).
