Process
Recruiter call and screening call with an algorithm question. The question was a pretty standard LeetCode problem. The interviewer was rude and uninterested, and even cut off his camera and microphone after a behavioral question. After talking for 20 minutes alone in front of a black screen, I left the call.
Questions
Algorithm and data structure question. Probably a LeetCode medium one.

February 28, 2021
Pros: Brilliant coworkers, good benefits, generous stock options, engaging topics.
The work I do at C3 is nothing short of invigorating. I am encouraged to work hard due to my belief in the company's vision and the variety of truly fascinating problems I get to solve. My colleagues at C3 are nothing short of superlative, and it is an honor to work with such brilliant folks. If you are someone who does not shy away from hard work, C3 is the place for you.
Cons: Long work hours at times, no permanent work from home.
We work very hard here. Some could say this is due to aggressive goals set by the executive team; others may say it is a product of the types of folks we hire here. Regardless, at times you will find yourself working late nights and potentially weekends. If you choose to work here, prepare yourself for the ride of your life.
