More engineering than “banking”
More engineering than “banking”
I'll caveat that this depends on where you work, org-wise. There's a lot of well-thought-out engineering going on that you'd see at more purpose-built tech companies. It feels great to work at a place that has people doing their best work, with folks at the top aware of it and doing their best to tap into that.
One pipeline (home grown Jenkins) is AWFUL and crashes or bugs out or has poor support, and often blocks teams.
Depending on which LOB you join, the competition can be RUTHLESS, especially in the Card Tech and Decisioning space. The work is interesting, draws in the sharpest people, and the relative bar just keeps getting higher and higher.

Normal powerday interview. It was pretty easy. Normal OOP technical with a banking question. The case interview was a little harder. Behavioral was normal. Focus on OOP concepts. All interviewers were really nice and helpful.

Easy, one case, one behavioral, one technical interview. By far the easiest interview I ever had. Normal behavioral questions, and for the case, just think from a business standpoint. Prep LeetCode Easy for the technical.
Software Engineer
Easy. Four rounds. 1. Behavioral. 2. Coding. 3. A “technical business” discussion. 4. A system design round based on resume and experience. Interviewers were nice and fair. The recruiter was very pushy and didn’t give me time to decide on the offer
