Pros

The compensation and bonus structure were decent. The type of technology created by this company was impressive. There was a good amount of opportunity for training when they introduced LinkedIn Learning. They also paid for me to maintain my certifications (until right before the layoff).

Cons

I joined Lumentum after their last layoff. Four months after I joined, they had another round of layoffs. I was hit with the latest round of layoffs. Any time you hear "cost cutting", you should know that it will always result in a WFR (workforce reduction) or RIF (reduction in force). I should have done my homework prior to joining this company. Nevertheless, they don't really have a vision for the future, unless you count acquisitions. Most individual contributors are decent people, but the management and executive team treat their direct reports as burdens. Overall, this is not a healthy workplace.

Pros

Great technology and colleagues. New CEO is driving high performance culture

Cons

Extremely political workplace. Team is led by an insecure leader who lacks vision for the company and her team. Everyone is set up for failure. Team is not empowered to succeed.
