Pros

Lutron way of running the work space are like no other, Their improvement process is always interesting and always fun to be part of, they attack each problem with a u8nique improvement process and makes problem solving a great fun. Lutron university allows employees to gain more skills and does indeed offers many very interesting courses in many subjects, from electronics to communications. Lutron will often move employees around and assign them to other projects, teams or titles, it can be a little scary at first but ends up being quite fun as you are never ever bored with what you do and always have a change to learn new things and work with different people.

Cons

Lutron loves to change, and changes are part of who they are as a work space, after a while you learn to accept those changes and not be bothered by them, but often changes are not communicated very well, there are a lot of whisperings and rumors going around but information don't come down from upper management until way after everyone was feeling scared and unsecured, which is a pity because some of those employees end up helping the change process a lot more by being involved and motivated by it. Also though Lutron claims to be aware of the work/life balance, often that balance is placed aside when they need you to work overtime or even weekends.

Pros

— Legitimate portfolio work: the role involved a full website overhaul and product PDP writing, which has real value on a CV — The company name carries weight and looks good on paper

Cons

Pay was consistently late — sometimes by three weeks. No explanation, no heads up, no acknowledgment of the stress this creates for contractors who don't have the luxury of waiting indefinitely for money they've already earned. On the day-to-day side: we were required to produce detailed logs of everything we did — long, tedious activity lists that served no clear purpose and ate into actual work time. The broader culture was captured perfectly in a phrase that came up regularly in stakeholder meetings: "I won't fall on my sword" or "I won't die on that hill" — or some variation of it. Upper management had a consistent habit of deflecting accountability downward onto contract workers, who had the least power and the least protection. When things went wrong, contractors were the convenient explanation. When things went right, that credit traveled elsewhere. If you're considering a contract role here, get your payment schedule in writing and ask very specific questions about how your manager operates. What's described as a flexible, collaborative environment may look quite different once you're in it.
