Process
Couple of interview rounds were conducted.
The first couple were spread out.
Then, four interviews were scheduled back-to-back across a single day.
Overall, it seemed like a good group.
There were no "gotcha" technical questions; instead, candidates were presented with problems to work through.

Work like a robot
Software Engineer • Current Employee
November 12, 2022
Pros: The pay was okay, and people are kind of nice. Work from home is accepted.
Cons: We just continually work on tickets without stop. It gets really monotonous and turns into a grind. Management is literally asking, "How can I get more work out of my team?" The "unlimited" PTO is very hard to take, and after-hours work is generally expected.

Poor leadership is running the company into the ground
Software Engineer • Current Employee
February 13, 2024
Pros: Good salary, that's about it.
Cons: Poor leadership, doesn't care about you.
Micro-managing, tracking your work/PRs.
Return to office.
You will be thrown under the bus.
Demo with 0 heads up.
Work/responsibility above your level.
Stock options are monopoly money; IPO'd at 22 and now at 16.
Will be told you will get growth opportunities; this is a pipe dream.
