Pros
Initially, the pros were great coworkers, wine and flexible schedules.
Cons
The company had a period of growth and stability until much of the upper management team left (seemingly not of their own accord). Their replacements were mostly incompetent sycophants who were tied up in the CEO (Kevin Fortuna)'s other business ventures. With most of the leadership also working for these other companies, chaos ensued at Lot18 as there was very little guidance or support. The CEO is a nightmare, alternating between ignoring the company then trying to micromanage everyone whenever he has a pet project or "great" new idea. He also outright lies to people. Multiple now-former employees were told their futures were secure at the company, or they would be promoted into leadership by the CEO and laid off shortly after. Do not believe a word he says. If he's making vague promises about your growth at the company, it's time to look for a new job. New employees churned in and out, some weren't even given working computers when they arrived. Multiple executives referred to the customers as "stupid." The CEO kept firing dev leads, finally installing a young dev without leadership experience then pushed the team to launch a nonfunctional new website that caused a huge loss in subscribers further exacerbating financial woes. A seemingly endless series of lay-offs throughout 2020 gutted middle management. Contacts who are still at the company have shared it is even worse now.
