Why teams switch

Why mid-market teams move from CI&T to Luby

  • The budget doesn't fit an enterprise program

    Mid-market roadmaps need a budget they can size before the first call. Teams move to Luby for senior Brazilian engineers at published rate ranges.

  • Capacity when the roadmap needs it

    A release that waits on staffing loses time it can't recover. Individual Luby engineers can start in as little as 7 days, and a full squad builds by week 4.

  • Terms that flex with the roadmap

    Mid-market plans change from quarter to quarter. Luby squads run on flexible terms, so capacity can grow or shrink without renegotiating the contract.

Honest take

When CI&T is the right fit

For large enterprise programs built around platforms like Salesforce and AWS that need public-company governance, CI&T fits. For mid-market pace with Brazilian engineering talent, Luby is built for that.
