Neutral ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Standard first-round technical.
Then on-site, two more technical interviews (one LeetCode and one problem-solving), one system design interview, and one behavioral interview.
One of the interviewers was a no-show, and I was required to reschedule for another date to re-do that particular interview.
Questions
Pretty standard LeetCode and system design questions.

Pretty good. Not great
Sr. Software Engineer • Current Employee
Richmond, Virginia, United States
September 26, 2024
Pros: Good pay. Most engineering teams don't track PTO, so it's kind of like unlimited PTO.
Cons: Very competitive performance management that stacks peers against each other. This makes it hard to relax and support one another; most people are out there for themselves. Leadership is also more concerned about looking good themselves.
Furthermore, bereavement leave sucks. They just increased it to two weeks, but even that isn't enough in some cases.

McLean, Virginia, United States
August 21, 2024
Pros: Hybrid approach: 2 days in the office per week, with allowed full remote weeks as needed. "Unlimited" PTO, which some see as a pro and some as a con.
Cons: Fierce promotion competition, being placed in a pool of employees with a bucketing system requiring some to be placed at the lower end.
