Good workplace with good compensation
Good workplace with good compensation
Highly valued as an individual. Good compensation. Good perks (pantry, museum tickets, etc.).
Long hours are expected in the industry.
Work is reasonably siloed, and teams in engineering departments have trust issues.
From a tech perspective, so much is bespoke and internal that you don't get to use much industry-wide tech.
There is less of a self-start mindset; there's more of a need to prioritize all the way up the command chain before allocating resources.
Promote more of an open-source software attitude within the company. Three-quarters of the improvements I had to convince management to allow were then immediately passed to another team because "they don't trust me with their codebase."

The behavioral interview was good. The interviewer asked past project-related questions and went into depth about the technical aspects related to those projects. They also inquired about general proficiency with coding and modeling.

I applied online. A recruiter reached out to me (it was the best recruitment experience ever, really). They scheduled a phone call that seemed like a fit check, which quickly moved through my CV, a little bit about the team, and questions about me.
