This is the most talented engineering org I've been a part of. The CTO, Cos, has a solid grasp on the organization of teams and working culture such that we actually get a lot done and aren't blocked by bureaucracy and meetings. There is documentation for virtually everything, and my onboarding process was seamless. Everyone I've met and worked with at every level knows their stuff, and it's clear why Brex has been able to deliver on the company goals so quickly. My manager is awesome, and we have a plan for my professional growth. He's been actively finding me opportunities to stretch myself. Work-life balance is amazing; time off is encouraged, full remote means I make my schedule work for me, and I feel like I can actually disconnect each day. Comp and benefits are awesome, to boot. Leadership regularly connects with employees and actively takes feedback and implements changes.

This interview was not LeetCode-based, focusing more on practical software engineering skills. The recruiter was very good at setting expectations on how to prepare. The recruiting and engineering teams were really nice and organized.
