Pros

A lot of great people, free lunch, a mostly good and consistent culture. Luno is a dynamic company to work for and it operates in an exciting industry. It has a clear vision and is a 'future thinking' company. There are opportunities for you to have a real say in your career path and most managers are open and willing to listen.

Cons

There's no medical aid benefits and few opportunities for travel unless you're upper management (despite having offices on multiple continents). Luno is scaling and hiring aggressively, which has led to hiring some people who don't embody the 'moontality'. This could end up rotting the company from within. if left unchecked. There are currently few opportunities for learning and development (although there is meant to be a new learning and development plan coming soon, so this may change). There is very little information around salary expectations, which makes it difficult to approach managers about earnings.

Pros

- Huge top-down focus on culture and People topics: trusting in employees and empowering them, making people the best possl - The vast majority of people here are above average smart and kind - One of the most exciting companies to work for with massive transformative purpose and enormous ambitions (1 billion customers by 2030) - In the US, it feels like a once in a lifetime opportunity to join as one of the early employees and be part of making history

Cons

- scaling challenges with internal coordination, planning and decision making across offices and regions around the world - the business and organization here in the US is completely new, so a lot of things will take a while to work smoothly and you have to be ok with that - scaling the team fast enough for our ambitions - some people don't like that the culture can be "too nice" at times
