Pluspunten

It's nice to have daily free lunch, but that's it.

Minpunten

I’ve been here for over two years and I’ve watched the company get really bad over the last year. Morale is really low and the number of people leaving is really high with a 20% turnover rate. It's so bad that leadership is trying to hide or downplay the number of people leaving. Engineers are not valued here and they are blamed for everything that goes wrong. The company is in a constant state of fire, all hands on deck, it's very stressful and for no good reason. The CEO thinks he knows best by saying "quality first" yet he has no clue what that even means. It's a convenient, moving target that makes prioritize impossible. It took us two years to launch a redesign mostly because the company is incapable of creating a roadmap and prioritize. No deadlines, quality first, they say. So as you can imagine, projects never launch or they take two years. This behavior is not small company dynamics. This is bad management over many years. Things do not move fast here. There's lots of finger pointing and blaming. Be prepared to work every weekend fixing fires. They removed the unlimited PTO and they track your time off. Except if you are leadership who takes multiple days off every week and month.

I take it personally when people don't have a good experience at the company, and I am sorry that happened to you. While I acknowledge we aren't perfect, I tend to ignore feedback from reviews like this that don't present a balanced view and don't come across as rational. If you are truly a current employee, you are not the type of person we want on this team. I see you frequently edit this review and it seems like you have some sort of vendetta. You know I have open office hours and offer ways to share anonymous feedback if that is too intimidating, but instead you bring up many complaints I have never heard of here on Glassdoor. (EDIT: this person deleted some particularly inflammatory parts of their review). This is unactionable - clearly I am not going to start an investigation based on a random comment here - and if you are not trolling and actually have real change you want to see you are not going about it in the right way. For those of you reading this review, yes, we have 20% annual turnover. Many of you reading this are probably good at math, so can do the algebra to see that 20% annual turnover implies 5 year average tenure, which is at least double the Silicon Valley average. If we weren't growing so quickly, I would strive to lower this, but 5 year average tenure feels pretty good when we are in a period of scaling like this.

Pluspunten

Really enjoying my time here so far. Everyone is super friendly and there's basically zero tech bro energy which is a huge plus coming from my last company. WFH is an awesome perk and people genuinely respect work life balance. The team is also very AI forward - they encourage developers to learn AI workflows and actually give us dedicated time to do it. The culture and the people make it a great place to work.

Minpunten

If you don't enjoy being in a fully remote/WFH environment, this might not be the best fit for you. Also, most of the devs are senior engineers or above, so if you're early in your career there's not a ton of other juniors around you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re proud of the culture we’ve built, and it means a lot to hear it comes through in day-to-day life at Life360. Our commitment to AI is real and growing. Every team member has access to tools, training, and opportunities to integrate AI into their work, and we’re excited to keep expanding these opportunities for everyone at Life360. - Justin, CTO

Pluspunten

1) Being remote FT is an absolute perk, there are no plans to transition to hybrid or in-office as offices have closed or been consolidated 2) Overall, the company pays well

Minpunten

1) Marketing leadership. Marketing has lacked true leadership for the past 4 years. There are various reasons for this situation, some of which were the product of extensive company wide reorganization and the company not prioritizing marketing. During that time amazing team members stepped up to get the work done, and for that I thank them. Currently, the team leads play favoritism; putting the chosen in a place of growth with others set out to fail. Transparency is a pipedream, a select few leads make all decisions until their plates are too full then hand off to others to bring through execution, usually lacking information or strong understanding of resources, budgets, roadblocks or bandwidth; ultimately setting them up for failure. 2) HRBP. The marketing HRBP is more interested in being liked by dept leadership than being a HR voice for the organization or there to support employees. This team member is more likely to tell you to leave or blame a “cultural fit” than to hear employee concerns 3) Data practices. If you have to ask, you know there is something wrong. 4) Growth. As mentioned with #2, those who are selected are put in positions of growth and promotion. If you are not a chosen one, be prepared to see others around you grow and your contributions never acknowledged. 5) Take a look or the org’s “Our Team” leadership, the importance of diversity speaks volumes. 6) Head to the career’s page, “Our Values” are laughable
