Food is expensive ($8 for salad, $10 for main dishes).
Very smart co-workers make you feel average.
Hard to make a big impact.
Changing teams is risky and awkward (you go through a full interview, your manager will find out, and if the new team doesn’t want you, well, it will be pretty awkward).

Firmware Engineer
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. The interviewer was fair, I was just rusty so I didn't move forward. Good team though, very friendly and accommodating. The recruiter was also super on-top of things and very kind as well. Ove
Firmware Engineer
Two rounds, both behavioral and technical. I didn't have to do a coding challenge; it was all about specific skills relevant to what I would be working on in the team. The entire interview process was very team-specific.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. Technical screening was directly and only coding. Didn't ask intro or anything. Try to explain theory concepts in between coding, they seem to like it. Basic C question, pointer arithmetic, bit manipulation
