Sinking Ship - Work here if you want to coast until the ship sinks

Pros

Some of the people here are really great. I've made some genuine friendships here. Can put in minimal effort and no one notices.

Cons

Where do I start... There is literally no revenue generating plan. The plan is to get more funding to survive another day. Their revenue forecasts are so unrealistic it's laughable to hear. There is no career growth or upwards movement here. There hasn't been a product roadmap in years and the product target market changes every 6 months. Honestly the fact that the company is still in existence defies all odds. The egos of the leadership team are insane considering that they haven't proven anything. The majority of the company has senior titles. Titles are meaningless and you can be VP of a department that doesn't exist.

Pros

Loved working with the rest of the engineering teams. Got the opportunity to work with some really brilliant people and build lasting relationships.

Cons

This company cares more about raising more capital than they care about bringing in revenue. There is no sense of urgency to build a real product or succeed as a startup. They are scraping by each year begging for handouts from investors while leadership contributes almost nothing and pats themselves on the back. Who are LISNR's customers? I worked there for years and have no idea. I've seen them spend ~$20K and hours upon hours of engineering time to support a $10K proof of concept that led to nothing. With effectively no customers and effectively no revenue from customers, you have to wonder what's keeping this place alive. LISNR missed its moment in time where this technology could be impactful. Now the world has reliable bluetooth chips and NFC payment. Nobody wants to fiddle with sound except as an afterthought. I wasn't going to write a review for LISNR here until I saw the fake positive reviews. Typical. Don't fall for it.
