Lithic reviews

The executive team operates with the unearned confidence of a teenager who just watched one TED Talk on leadership; they feel very strongly about topics they’ve never actually experienced. The 'inner circle' is tighter than a pair of skinny jeans from 2012, if you aren’t in it, don't bother bringing a map to the strategy meeting. Just nod ok, keep your head down, and definitely don't mention that the 'past glory days' are now ancient history. Mid-management is essentially high-performing individual contributors who were handed a whistle and told to coach, leading to a lot of 'vibes-based' direction. Speaking of vibes, the recent turnover is concerning. People are being let go without clear data or transparent reasons. It feels less like a performance-based environment and more like a 'Survival of the Fittest Socialite' if the inner circle decides you aren't their brand of tea, you’re gone. 10/10 for the social snacks, 2/10 for actual direction and job security.

Lack of strategic direction, especially on the gtm side. This is natural though for a company of this size. This is a company to watch in the space, they just need stronger leadership in order to execute. It felt like Lithic was really playing catchup with the rest of players in the space.
