Pretty good place to work, but stressful at times
Pretty good place to work, but stressful at times
- smart people
- quite cool events, if you're into that
- good salary
- remote work, mostly
- not stingy about money
- supportive colleagues
- I had an amazing manager for a while
- you learn a lot
- There's often a sense of rush.
- I had a very bad micromanaging manager for a while.
- When I left, they had started to do time accounting for every minute of the day.
- Blaming culture at times.
- When people left my team, the roadmap didn't get readjusted to account for that, so people just ended up doing a lot of overtime.
- People would flat-out lie about overtime, even if you could see them online and committing code, and managers would not address this. So you were seen as lazy if you complained about work-life balance.
- Prioritize team fit.
- Be realistic about day-to-day life when asked during interviews.
- Defend your engineers' time.
- Don't be a micromanager.

I didn't make it through the whole process (I failed at one of the technical interviews), but up to this point, everything was nice and smooth. I received all of the required information from the recruiter, including an overview of the whole process
Software Engineer
The process involved LeetCode-style questions. They also presented database problems that you had to solve independently. This was not during an interview with another person.

4 interviews: * Tech screen - implementing an API * Code review - find bugs in a service, it leans toward a systems design approach * System design - checks the basics, not predefined answers * Team fit - a discussion with the hiring team
