Drink the Kool-Aid
Drink the Kool-Aid
- RSUs are pretty good with the stock price.
- Ability to move around or move up in the company.
- Work with some of the smartest people you’ll encounter.
There’s a lot of “kool-aid” drinking at this company. They push their leadership principles every chance they get, but those same leadership principles are dropped at the first sight of inconvenience when something doesn’t work in their favor.
Also, be sure to come in at a higher salary because, if you do, promotion increases for base pay are a joke.
They need to be consistent in who they make a manager, because there are some who don’t have a clue of what’s going on.

A recruiter reached out, and things went really well. I completed an initial screen and was scheduled for the famous "loop." The day before my loop, the recruiter called and informed me that they had decided to proceed with an internal candidate.

After the initial HR call, there was a 1-hour phone screen with the hiring manager. The hiring manager asked general questions on AWS technologies and domain-specific questions, as the position was specific to data analytics specialists. After that
