Once great, now on the decline
Hiring process is great. Benefits are great. Work-life balance is perfect.
The company is heading in the wrong direction. Management is making decisions that do not make sense, and then individual contributors take the heat.
Reset yourself.

It was a text chat interview with a technical team member. We chatted for more than an hour about motivations, technical stuff, and ways of solving problems. He also asked me about a complex situation I had in the past.
