Pros

The people are awesome. The Lytx culture is great. While every company has its fair share of tech debt and mess, the engineering teams try to address these as best they can.

Cons

5 year vesting period for 401k is absurdly long. Entry level salary is quite competitive, but the rate of growth is very small. Now for the biggest issue. The company DOES NOT value long term employees and DOES NOT reward loyalty. HC penny pinches and regularly screws people out of money they deserve. I can personally say I've been intentionally shorted at least $15k over the several years I've been here due to their stupid policies and inflexibility to address these concerns. Because of this inflexibility and refusal to reward long term employees, turnover rate is high for the software engineering teams. There are far more new employees at every level than there are old employees. Because of this, I am so torn about leaving. I love the people and the work, but I am not ok with being shorted on what I am worth. Its like a bad relationship. The good times are great, but being cheated on feels like crap and, while it may hurt to leave, it's for the best to move on. I could only recommend Lytx to a friend as a short term commitment.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We do like to have a good time at Lytx and we think celebrating our successes and our employees are a core part of what makes our culture so great. Our recent “Return to Office” events for phase one employees which included free coffee, catered lunches, happy hours and cool swag received rave reviews. We evaluate our overall employee offering annually to maintain a competitive edge in the industry and we’re currently researching the 401K vesting period. We value all of our employees and encourage you to reach out directly to your supervisor or Human Capital Partner to discuss your specific concerns.

Pros

- Located in an awful location that makes the commute brutal from anywhere you are coming from. Yes, that's a pro. It takes you longer to get there, which delays the time you actually have to be in the office. - If you worked for Mitchell, you can transition over here. Easily. No questions asked.

Cons

- Claims to be up front, honest and communicative. 0 for 3. - If you are one of the "long timers" you can do (or not do) just about anything. - No technical vision. - No REAL product vision. - If you didn't previously work for Mitchell or Life Technologies, you're in trouble. - There are some good people, who actually care, but the culture (contrary to what management would like you to believe what the culture is) is to cover your butt, shut up, and wait for the next re-org. - CEO should be ashamed of what he's let happen.
