Case Study: Li-Cycle achieves 100% on-time, scalable performance reviews with Lattice

Leveraging Performance Reviews To Drive Employee Growth With Li-Cycle

Li‑Cycle, a fast‑growing lithium‑ion battery recycling company, faced a scaling challenge: performance reviews were run manually in Excel as the team grew from a handful of employees toward 50+, and HR needed a scalable, integrated system to set expectations and preserve the company’s team‑oriented culture. To solve this, Li‑Cycle evaluated and selected Lattice, implementing the Lattice Platform (Plan with Premium Support) for performance management, 1:1s, and career development.

Using Lattice’s full performance management suite — including reviews, 1:1 tools and Grow features — Li‑Cycle streamlined its review cycles and reinforced manager‑employee dialogue. The result: intuitive adoption with minimal pushback, improved meeting agendas and career tracking, and measurable impact such as 100% of mid‑year reviews completed on time with minimal HR prodding; Li‑Cycle plans to expand Lattice’s use company‑wide.
