Pros
A few really great people work here, unfortunately, it is not the majority.
Cons
This is one of the most misaligned businesses I have worked for in my career. The leadership team has zero sense of what it takes to bring a product to market or even something as simple as product-market fit for that matter. Because of the lack of leadership, experience, and knowledge specifically with the CEO, Eric Allen. Without top tier leadership change, LISNR will not see revenue-producing success anytime soon. In every company meeting, the goals presented by Eric were never around new customers or proving the solution in the market, it was simply to obtain more funding. This company has survived solely on more and more funding without actually doing anything material since 2012. Additionally, Eric is a chronic liar, lying to the company and the board on a regular basis never owning any part of the business, well except funding. This is a small company that does not know how to capitalize on the flexibility and nimbleness a small team can bring. Instead, the huge ego and narcissism minimize teams, growth, and success. The founders and co-founders run the company like it was a Fortune 100 organization with multiple product offerings and the layers of management to support them. Of course, outside of what the marketing material read, the product could not support it today or at scale. Know that there are great leaders out there who actually drive product and developer teams and create an environment that motivates teams to full potential and success. It is truly unfortunate for Cincy tech that a company with this level of incompetence plays such a large part of the local ecosystem.
