Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
I had my first video interview in early October, and the experience was quite awful.
I was then ghosted for a month.
I sent three emails to HR asking for updates, but received no reply.
More than a month later, I got a rejection letter.
I will never apply here again.

Pros: Good pay.
Good benefits.
Nice office and desk.
Free food and drinks.
Looks good on your resume.
Cons: If you get bullied and you complain, it is YOU that will be written up or fired.
If you get a good team, you will have a lot of fun; if not, you will hate it.
Often, your team leader is inexperienced and will see you as a threat.
Incredibly long hours, partly due to the archaic technology.
The programmer gets the blame and the manager takes the credit.
Never, ever, ever complain to HR. Once you have a target on your head, you will be forced out. You will see this happening to others.
