Embedded C++ Software Engineer Interview Experience - Ankara, Turkey
Process
First step was a teams call about my experiences and the second step was an assignment. I have perfectly done the assignment and tested for the requirements. I've sent the assignment in 3 days and they did not answer for 3 weeks.
Afterwards when I asked, they said that I am not selected for further steps because of my assignment. I find this is disrespectful because I've covered all the requirements of the assignment in my answers.
Questions
The assignment was a design and I cannot mention a content since it is confidential, but I can upload my own source code to my GitHub account. Go check it yourself to see if it is generic and fast (OR NOT):

- 2.0Great company sinking because of poor leadershipSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeCambridge, United KingdomApril 21, 2023Pros: The engineering peers are great and the work is really interesting.Cons: Poor management. Most of the managers are engineers that just want to be individual contributors. They climbed the ranks by writing great code, not by managing people, and most of the time these 2 skillsets don't come together. Executive level became so opaque. There is a constant feeling of mistrust towards them. Raise and promotion system feels unfair. There is no anonymity related to peer feedback and most of the time they're not even considered. The entire process is opaque. Poor pay and benefits compared to top tech companies. Outdated mentality related to remote working and hybrid working.
