Process
The interview process was pretty typical for the industry.
I liked the team and the work that was being done.
The recruiter was very nice and easy to work with, but sometimes took a very long time to respond.
The interview process was standard: a series of 5 mini-interviews with different team members, some technical and some focused on culture fit.
I did well in 4 out of the 5 mini-interviews. I stumbled a bit with one technical question, which wasn't really a good indicator of whether or not someone is fit for the job, in my personal opinion.
Afterwards, they wanted to "give me another chance" since everyone liked me. I did very well on a very easy technical exercise, but they decided not to move forward.
In the end, I accepted a better offer elsewhere.

- 1.0Good people stuck behind poor leadershipSenior Software Engineer • Former EmployeeDania Beach, Florida, United StatesJune 17, 2022Pros: Benefits: 401k, Health, Dental, Vision Some really talented people. Great overall product.Cons: Pay; for the number of hours. Leadership; at the C-suite level, not just the CEO. Wasting money; besides the wasted money for multiple projects that go nowhere, the C-suite compensation doesn't make sense for the share price. Unlimited PTO; rarely able to be used and requires manager approval. Also, no accrued pay after you leave. Culture; expected to not have a life. Transparency; management leaves teams in the dark. Lack of focus; not enough upper management leadership directing a vision. Silos; too many teams not working together to achieve a goal, and multiple teams working on similar deliverables because they don't talk.
