Overall, I found the Brex interview process to be pleasant. After I applied, the recruiter quickly set up a time for us to chat.

I got a good sense of Brex and the role after our conversation. I then had a coding interview with an engineer and got to ask questions about the engineering culture, what team I could be working on, and so on.

I was concerned after reading previous Glassdoor reviews about the work-life balance (I have a kid) but felt much more comfortable with continuing the process after chatting. I was then scheduled to come onsite for a panel. I was pleasantly surprised with the quick turnaround time the recruiting team had in getting me scheduled.

During my onsite panel, I was able to eat lunch with a couple of engineers at the office. I particularly enjoyed this and found our conversations to be organic and compelling.

Ultimately, I did not end up getting an offer after the onsite but found the experience to be more enjoyable than a lot of other interviews.

The only thing I could recommend Brex change for their interviews is to include non-tech employees on interview panels. I know I would have liked to learn more about the company from a business perspective.

Tell me about the hardest/most interesting project you have worked on.
