Lever Reviews

Pros

I joined Lever when we were still a Series A company and the entire company could fit around a few lunch tables. I'm grateful for the way Lever has grown and changed, but stuck to its values. Now that we're north of 200 employees, I appreciate the way leadership continues to be transparent, places a lot of trust in employees, and encourages us to act like owners. That, and I really like my coworkers. People here work hard, believe in our mission, and are here to get things done.

Additionally:
- Great office space
- Free, good food
- We celebrate in a variety of ways (introverts and extroverts alike can take part)
- Town hall with leadership in all-hands meetings often
- An actual compensation philosophy + performance / compensation reviews
- Commuter perks
- Leadership invests in management and provides resources to managers

Advice to Management

Continue to align with one another and communicate across your team. I've noticed sometimes the left hand isn't aware of what the right hand is doing. Neither hand is wrong, per se, but keeping each other informed helps ICs understand the impact of their work. Your jobs are hard; thanks for all you do. :)

Advice to Management

keep it up! you all are best in class and the progress we've made has been incredible to watch and be a part of.

Pros

-Honestly they live the values entirely. Great employee experience - I feel very fortunate to be working here.

Pros

- Supportive of diversity and inclusion efforts but at times too liberal
- Some fun cultural quirks and tradition
- free foods

Pros

Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. People really care about the work you're doing and how they can help you be successful in your role.

The free food and unlimited PTO ain't bad either.

Pros

If you're willing to dive in and take on additional responsibility this is the place for you. You'll have a lot of autonomy to help the company build. Given our size and current growth plans, we need folks to jump in and take on projects to help us get to where our goals are. Wonderful people. We tend to hire a diverse crowd with lots of perspectives as well. Not the cookie cutter "bro" vibe at all. There's genuine care to do things the right way here.

Advice to Management

We've got clarity on how ICs get promoted. But there's no detail on how managers move up. Some are hired as seniors from outside. No detail and nothing in writing on how sales managers can continue to grow.

Pros

Management cares about employees, executive leadership provides vision and direction. Team is growing quickly and crushing its goals. Some of the smartest/nicest people I've ever worked with. The product is a market leader. Incredible opportunities to grow quickly in your role if you do a good job and become a leader on your team. Standard startup perks (free lunch, flexible work hours/wfh, snacks/drinks/work outings).

Advice to Management

Keep managing workload, keep focusing on culture to make sure each new Leveroo keeps adding to our great work environment.

Pros

The thing that strikes me most about Lever, every day, is how much of a team atmosphere there is -- not only within departments but across them too. People just seem to want to help each other out. It seems basic, but it is a simple way to describe an amazing culture. It also feels like everyone is dedicated to the mission here. We have lofty goals but really plan to hit them.

Advice to Management

Keep investing in the product. It's amazing, and if the pace of adding to it can be maintained, it will continue to totally change the game in this space.

Pros

Great company culture. It has the feel of a startup but clearly growing towards big goals. Management cares a lot about their employees. BIG emphasis on diversity and Inclusion.

Advice to Management

Keep creating an inclusive environment for your employees. we appreciate it.
