Process
A one-question HackerRank challenge, medium difficulty, but it required dealing with many details.
My submitted code passed all test cases and used an efficient data structure, but I received a rejection email stating, "The results of your testing did not meet our minimum requirements to move forward in our process."
They don't care how you solve the challenge. They send assessments for fun, as others have reported here on Glassdoor.

Yet another CTO! 6?
Software Developer • Former Employee

Pros: Still fairly dynamic and flexible despite the size.
Cons: What a joke. I think it’s six CTOs now in 10 years; that’s not normal.
The other reviews about nepotism are all true. The original few ‘partners’ do what they want, while the rest of us get the dirty jobs and don’t share in the returns.
They are intern crazy as well. Hundreds come in every year, and it’s a bit of a factory, to be honest.
Never mind the CTO revolving door; it’s the same with other roles. Most people can’t stick it for two years before they realize they’ll have a much better work/life balance at other firms.

Pros: * Reasonable, down-to-earth management
* Top tech talent
* People are serious about their work
* Many social opportunities
* Very cool office
* Freedom to explore new technologies and propose ideas
* Immediate feedback (move fast and break things)
* Great work schedule

Cons: * Very fast-paced, not for the faint of heart.
* High pressure/responsibility - money is on the line every second of the day.
* Growing very quickly, expect to devote a chunk of time to the interview process.
* Training programs are improving, but you are still definitely expected to hit the ground running.
* Some benefits are still being ironed out.
