Demanding and Tough
Demanding and Tough
Good salary and smart people. Never a boring day. Lots to learn and opportunity to work on complex systems. I made lots of good connections. Lots of good stories about problem-solving and making meaningful contributions.
Very stressful and long hours.
Organization-wide goals have questionable motivations.
Tight deadlines and out-of-touch leadership.
Worse benefits than other companies.
Strong push for AI that results in justifying bad decisions.
There should be more pushback against unnecessary projects. Deadlines set by leadership are unrealistic and priorities change too often, without consideration for adjustment periods and context switching.

The interviewers were great, and everyone made me feel welcome. It started with an OA, followed by four rounds of virtual onsite interviews. The interviews were of medium difficulty. One of them was similar to generating parentheses on LeetCode.

One take-home test and one interview. The take-home test was related to a BFS question. In the interview, it was more about how you answered the test. Also, they have a simulation test which assesses your non-tech skills.
