Opportunities to do interesting work.
So much bureaucracy, so many unnecessary meetings. Way too many managers, all needing to invent changes to justify their roles and get promoted.
Excellence is not valued; the ability to bring in money is the only thing valued. The issue is, the ability to bring in money is extremely strongly tied to what team you are in and what internal/external opportunities you are exposed to. Many people are in dead-end teams that never see or generate funding opportunities, and hence careers are capped quite quickly.
Applied online and had a Webex interview with the two managers from the team. I was offered a job and had to get a security clearance. This involved a lot of paperwork, questionnaires, and an interview with a psychologist.
Not bad, but since the software test is in pen and paper, you should practice pseudocode and not cheat. Interviews are now in the post-AI era, where companies use it extensively or not at all.
Though it was pre-recorded, there was one behavioral question, one coding question, and one recording of you explaining your solution. The question was impossible, and I later looked it up to see it wasn’t actually solvable.
