How employees feel about working at LÜK
Culture
“A good life is a series of good days.”
At LÜK, we are focused on creating a company where people want to work for a long, long time. We spend a lot of time thinking about how we can make the best culture possible because we believe that each employee can become exponentially more valuable as they continue with the company.
We are world-class at building culture. How do we know? We have a team of 24 people, and not a single one of them has ever voluntarily left the company.
How did we do it?
We are nice. We believe that being nice and being successful are not mutually exclusive.
Our number one hiring criteria is culture fit. Number two is that we hire for a person’s drive. Number three is hiring for your actual skill sets. We believe that if we nail number one and number two, then anybody can learn more skills.
At LÜK, we optimize for output (hitting goals) over input (hours worked). In order to solve really hard problems, you need to be operating at your highest level. That means operating at 100%, 70% of the time; rather than operating at 70%, 100% of the time.
LÜK has unlimited PTO.
LÜK has set 3-day weekends for every month that doesn’t already have a 3-day weekend. These are called “KÜL Off Days.”
Everybody gets their birthdays off.
LÜK Recess: Twice a week between 10 am - 3 pm, our employees can take an hour break during the workday to participate in a screen-free activity to recharge and come back to work refreshed.
Home is where the wifi is - LÜK is fully remote. Work from wherever has strong wifi.
LÜK gives you a $3000 stipend to set up your ideal work-from-home setup.
LÜK pays for 75% of health, dental, and vision benefits.
Every employee gets stock options when they join
A company 401(k)
Four months paid maternity leave and two months paid paternity leave. We are proud to have knowingly hired two pregnant women to our team in the past.
