Competitive pay, good benefits. The company is trying to reinvent itself as a technology company and is trying to move at a rapid pace, meaning a lot of opportunities to learn and work on modern tools.
If you are lucky, then you might end up working on really cool products as well.
Senior leadership is pushing everyone in the organization to get technical.
Struggling to shake off vendor-dominated technology teams, many leaders from back in time have no clue how to run teams. Historically, they had all vendors (very substandard folks and too much control), so some leaders rely heavily on vendors and have no idea how to hire or mentor full-time employees.
Too much politics if you end up in really toxic teams (trust me, there are plenty). A lot of attrition in such teams doesn't help with morale.
Shake up some of the leadership. Train and coach them on how to hire and retain talent. Take a good look at vendor relationships and drive quality there. I have seen some of the worst resources coming from them, forcing full-time employees to work with and manage them.

Extremely unprofessional people I have ever seen in my 9 years of career. It was awful to talk to them, and I bailed out of the process. This was my first and last interview with them. Never again.

First round: 3 algorithms with no real-world applications. If they want someone who mugs up algorithms, then what's the point of algorithms? LeetCode/Codility are clients of these organizations. It's a two-way business. Organizations sign contract
