Pros

Growth is highly valued. A lot of companies say that, but LeanLaw lives it by encouraging people to propose ideas and projects, ask questions, coach each other on product and technical knowledge, and pursue courses that empower them in their roles. I’ve gained so many skills and gotten to take on so many challenges while working here. The people who work here are friendly, fun, and knowledgeable. Combined with the growth mentality, you get a company full of people who are happy to hop on a huddle and walk someone through something they don’t know or troubleshoot problems. I’ve never worked with a better group. Fully remote work supports a very healthy work-life balance. Sometimes I'll tell myself, “Let me just finish this other thing and then I’ll call it a day” and then I’ll look up and it’s 7pm. But, aside from that, I absolutely love the 0 minute commute time, the flexibility to make appointments for healthcare, and the ability to travel while working.

Cons

Constant growth cuts both ways as new tools are constantly being learned and discarded, responsibilities shifted, and SOPs changed. It can get stressful, and it's not for everyone. Pure remote work can be difficult for people who gain joy out of hanging out with coworkers, or who struggle with self-starting. I don’t consider it a con, but I list it here because I’ve worked with a few people who couldn’t find their momentum because of it.

Pros

I worked at LeanLaw for about a year and a half, and it was a solid experience overall. As a product manager, I had the chance to contribute to a growing company that was still in the process of refining its product-market fit, which made for an interesting and often dynamic work environment. The flexibility in terms of working arrangements was another positive aspect. LeanLaw supports various work styles, including remote and hybrid options, which made it easier to adjust to different personal circumstances. The organization is still scaling, which means there are plenty of opportunities to get involved in different aspects of the business.

Cons

The company is in a stage where product-market fit is still being worked on, so there can be some uncertainty and shifting priorities at times. It may not be the right fit for everyone—particularly those who prefer more stability or are looking for a fully established product-market fit.

Pros

I worked on the Sales Team at LeanLaw for over a year, and overall, it was a great experience! As a Senior Sales Representative, I was part of an evolving team in a financial tech startup providing billing and financial management software to law firms. In my role, the compensation was competitive, with commission opportunities available on top of a solid base salary and fully covered health benefits. There is also a healthy focus on work life balance -- we were closed for federal holidays and they have an Open PTO policy. Coworkers were encouraged to take vacations and share their time-off adventures with the team. During my time there, I received consistent coaching and support from upper management, which helped me refine my sales skills. There was also strong collaboration across teams and an intentional fostering of relationships between the members of these teams. Although I ultimately wasn’t the right fit for the role, the leadership team was always approachable, and I felt well-supported throughout. LeanLaw is still a growing player in the legal financial tech space, but with strong demand for their QuickBooks Online integration, the company is steadily expanding. Whether you're interested in sales, operations, or engineering, LeanLaw offers great opportunities to get in on the ground floor of a promising startup.

Cons

There is an intense focus on growth at LeanLaw. Given its position as a late-stage start up, there is pressure from some of the investors who make up the board to grow revenue. This is typical at a start up that has passed its first few rounds of fundraising. As a result, this is not a company where you have a gradual onramp to onboarding or where you would have the space to work on professional development if you're not excelling in your role. They are looking for talented team members who can get up to speed quickly and start offering value right away. If you're a self starter, this is a good opportunity to have a high impact and get rewarded for it -- LeanLaws leadership is quick to recognize good work and promote high performers. Also, this will certainly change as the company grows but anyone joining this team in the near future should be prepared to justify their hiring through consistent high-level performance.
