Applied online and received a coding challenge after a few days. I had two weeks to complete it, but was given 2.5 hours.
If you hear back, you make it to the next round.
Questions

Smart People, Dying Office
Software Engineer II • Current Employee
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
July 6, 2023
Pros: A lot of genuinely good, smart people work there.
Cons: The Sydney office is dying due to mismanagement.
Twenty developers were laid off in January, and another 20 just now. Some of those were fresh grads who started after the first layoffs.
No town halls this year.
We were doing interviews for intern and grad roles for this Summer, which no longer exist. Decisions around redundancies were very political (both global and locally).

Generally nice and young environment to work in.
Cons: Management is incompetent; they over-hire and then fire everyone or rescind offers.
There is tons of nepotism, as described by others on Glassdoor.
Pay is low compared to competitors.
