Pros

Allows for some remote flexibility if you are working near an office

Cons

Compensation is below market value and the company does not provide equity unless you are one of the top execs. Career growth opportunities are limited and career paths are unclear, while many job openings or promotions are given to friends and family of leadership. The company has substantial communication challenges. Leadership does not have clear messaging and will oftentimes refuse to elaborate on its goals or statements. Leadership will generally take the advice of its investors over the advice of our own people who are closer to the situation. Many individuals and teams are working within siloes and cross-functional work can be difficult as we are not a company where sharing and collaboration is in our DNA. The culture is one that prioritizes short-term results over long-term solutions. This often leads to bad work that needs to be fixed and increases the amount of pressure on employees. Oftentimes employees are encouraged to work long hours, including nights and weekends, and the company does nothing to discourage a bad work-life balance. While the company has declared a commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, there seemed to be a lack of concrete initiatives or programs in place to foster a truly inclusive workplace culture. Many people do seem to get away with disrespectful or toxic behavior. There is a large disparity in the amount of amenities & perks you can expect based on your office location. HQ is in Belgium and so all other employees can feel like an afterthought.

Pros

The recruitment pipeline is exceptionally transparent, efficient, and genuinely human. Communication is consistent, interviewers are engaged, and the conversations feel intentional rather than scripted. Leadership asks sharp, strategic questions that make it clear the bar is high, and the work is meaningful. The overall experience signals alignment, respect, and momentum.

Cons

The only real downside is that salary ranges aren’t posted. For me, that’s normally a major red flag and typically a deal-breaker, as I usually don’t apply to roles without compensation transparency. That lack of clarity initially put Lansweeper at the bottom of my list. The process itself changed my perception, but publishing ranges upfront would eliminate early hesitation for candidates who prioritize transparency.

Pros

- competitive HR benefits package with low cost insurance premiums, above average PTO, WFH tech stipends, and other perks - friendly in office culture with many people hanging out socially outside of work - most teams have an offsite budget which can take place either locally or internationally depending on your team distribution - company hosts an annual full company offsite at a different European city each year - in this economy a job is a job, they are very slow to get rid of people so as long as you’re not a troublemaker (challenging the status quo) or sucking at your job you can largely be ignored to just collect your check and go home

Cons

- “executive misalignment” Is and always has been the #1 cited issue at the company. The vision changes every year and the strategy sometimes more than once within a year. The only unified goal is to be more profitable but how we get there and what we focus on and sacrifice to make it happen is different depending on the exec and the day of the week. - The executives are tired and ready for exit, they don’t want to be here anymore and it shows in all the business decisions. Short term goals to pad the revenue numbers for the quarter are the only thing they have an appetite for and most of the changes they want come at the direct deficit of the customer and overall company health. - Lansweeper has a communal/ group-think decision making culture as opposed to a hierarchical/accountable-party decision making culture. Which means we literally cannot make or keep a decision unless everyone from the executive to the janitor has agreed and all possible alternatives have been considered and categorically ruled out. This means decisions drag on for months and nothing meaningful, innovative, or challenging ever really gets done. - we have lost a healthy amount a good middle management that actually had leadership experience outside of Lansweeper. All teams have suffered because of this and the middle management that’s left is thin and powerless. - We’re on a twice annual release cycle which tells you everything you need to know from a product and engineering perspective
