Process
I went with a recruiting firm and got a phone interview in two weeks. On the day of the interview, I received a call five minutes late from the scheduled time. The interviewer seemed to be in a great hurry. He dived into a HackerRank session without asking any questions about my expertise or technical background.

- 5.0Smart people, great work-life balanceSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeNovember 19, 2022Pros: Great coworkers, excellent culture. People recognize that work is work, and not all of life. Work is held to a high standard of excellence. I've learned so much from colleagues. Internal transfers are highly encouraged, so if you get bored, you can have a whole different career inside the same company. Great benefits and PTO.Cons: Some teams are not as exciting or motivated and can be a bit boring, but it really depends a lot on the team. Thankfully, internal transfers are highly encouraged, so if you're on a team that you don't jive with, you can find another one, and everyone's cool with it.
