Vantaggi

The employees make work fun and engaging, I was able to learn a lot and really enjoyed coming to work. The team was enjoyable and everyone was nice, issues were few and far between. Was a great place to learn for 4 years but I was glad to leave. Pay was average, not exceptional but not bottom of the barrel.

Svantaggi

Insurance was terrible, there is ZERO leave for pregnant women. There is 401k match but only after 1 year, and you have to stay 7 years to be vested, which means they will get rid of you befre 7 years. Management is clueless, and still operating the company as if it were 1999 and they are a 15 person company. Was often encouraged to lie to customers to get them to buy new things they didn't need. Was often encouraged to not fix issues so customer would have to spend more money to get more support. Any pro-active work to mitigate issues the client may have to prevent future issues was not allowed, unless on billable time. If nothing was breaking and we didn't get any calls, it was assumed we weren't doing anything useful and we were in trouble. There was zero opportunity to take an hour of the day and learn something new, something that would be massively beneficial for you and the company. CEO cares about the bottom line only, nothing else matters. The employee doesn't matter, the customer doesn't matter, only the bank account matters. There is no job growth opportunity at all, there is no room for advancement because every management job is taken by "managers" who won't leave because at any other job, they'd be making 25k a year and would be in charge of the fry machine.

At LCS, we truly value our employees. Our employees are eligible to take 12 weeks off work to care for their newborn and themselves after the birth of a child. We benchmark our insurance benefits against the market on a regular basis and believe we have a very competitive benefits package. We provide a matching contribution of 100% up to 4% of pay into employees’ 401(K) accounts. Employees are fully vested in the 401(K) employer matching contributions immediately upon receiving it. Additionally, we have an annual discretionary profit sharing contribution which has been 3.6%. This results in employer 401(K) contributions of up to 7.6% of pay each year! Like our employees, customers are very precious to LCS. Nothing is more important to us than being courteous, helpful, and honest with our customers and we take that very seriously. Under no circumstances would anyone be encouraged to not take care of our customers. We take pride in the fact that LCS has many customers that have been using our software and services for 20+ years. If you experienced anything other than this we wish you would have reported it to our Human Resources department or our President/CEO so that it could have been addressed. We are sorry you had a negative experience and wish you the best in your career.

Vantaggi

Nearly everyone at the company is kind and helpful. The room for growth is there if you take it. Company culture is the best I have seen in Cincinnati.

Svantaggi

Disconnect between departments. Major improvements needed in workflows and processes. Sometimes it does not pay off to work harder than others here.
