Senior Software Developer Interview Experience - United States
Process
I submitted my resume to their job post and was contacted by a recruiter for an initial interview.
After that, I was interviewed by two technical people.
The overall process was smooth, but afterwards, I did not hear back from them.
I contacted the recruiter as well, but there was no response.
If the company is comparing itself to Amazon, it should definitely follow some standards.

Chewy Work Experiences
- 1.0Bodyshop with Amazon ambitionsSenior Software Developer • Former EmployeeBoston, Massachusetts, United StatesJune 3, 2019Pros: Location and commute. Lots of restaurants and nightlife around. Compensation is ok.Cons: Aggressive, show-off management style. Pretending to be Amazon. Everything green on paper, red in reality. Top and middle tech management consists almost exclusively of folks with offshore, no pushback engineering culture. Deeply hierarchical, slow, many errors, pretending to be fast-paced and top-notch. In engineering terms, 5 years behind. The Florida office is driving decisions. Testing and CI/CD are unknown terms. Agile is not really practiced. Source control is a mess.
