Process
Initial technical phone call with an engineer.
He asked questions about my projects and resume, plus an easy HackerRank problem to sum it up.
A couple of weeks later, I had a technical video conference interview with two engineers.
They gave me two LeetCode mediums, and I was rejected afterwards.

Been here a while. Seen ups and downs. Overall, OK
Senior Software Developer • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
January 13, 2013
Pros: Great colleagues.
Great benefits.
Good compensation.
Decent work-life balance.
Some software projects are interesting.
Lately, they are improving how software projects are run. There has been some relaxing of the unending emphasis on Time-to-Market (i.e., deliver something ASAP) to actually taking the time to build something cool.
Cons: Old and proprietary technology. There is no way around this.
The terminal is an artifact from the 80s, with several paint jobs. But hey, it works!
There are some teams working on cool stuff, but they are the exception rather than the norm.
Management is rigid, and there is quite a bit of politics.
Not always a meritocracy – more like a favoritocracy. But that is a fact of life everywhere.
Big brother atmosphere, where everything is monitored. Lately, this has been improving.
