Pros

-Beautiful Office -A lot of nice people -Helpful co-workers -A lot of opportunities to learn new things!

Cons

I echo a lot of the sentiments in the recent reviews. I just wanted to add that they laid off over 50% of their software developers over a 12-month period, and 50% of those (several senior level) were let go just 3 or 4 weeks ago. They now have a new job posting for Sr. Software Developer. Wow. Not much else to say on that. At my time there, I didn't really ever feel welcomed or wanted by senior leadership; they never said anything to me unless there were problems or perceived problems with our team. They also ghosted some referrals that team members brought to them. These referrals and went through three interviews, with two interviews in the office where they had to take time out of their day to drive there. It's just plain out of touch and disrespectful.

Pros

The office is nice, there are some good people (not in management) and the food is nice

Cons

Where do we start?? Leads are sent to friends of managers, brown nosers and yes men first, the rest are sent out to the peasants. Favoritism runs rampant, rewards, shout outs and trips are given to the same people over and over, not due to performance but because they're hand fed goldend opportunities, I personally saw a top performer close 5 deals without ever speaking to the customer, just let the deal be tee'd up and then coasting while dinking around the office acting like he rules the kingdom. Managers are shallow, money hungry liars who care more about their appearance and stock holders than the people, like they used to. CANNOT recommend staying away enough!!

Thank you for the time you gave to Lendio and for leaving this feedback — even when it's hard to hear, it's important that we do. Fairness on the sales floor — how leads are distributed, how wins are recognized, and how managers show up for their teams — are things we take seriously. The nostalgia in your advice isn't lost on us. A culture where new reps get celebrated, coaching is genuine, and people feel like they belong is something worth fighting to keep. We're not interested in defending the gaps — we're interested in closing them. If you'd be willing to share more about your experience, we'd welcome that conversation.
