Process
I applied online, and I heard back after about two weeks for an initial screening. The screening went well, but the following week I was informed they decided not to move forward. Based on the information shared, after the screening, it will move on to a 1-hour coding round, then proceed to a final stage of five 1-hour sessions:
- JavaScript coding
- System design
- DSA
- Code review
- A project deep dive

Coursera Work Experiences

Exposure to Tech Stack,
Mishandled Team
Software Engineer Intern • Former Employee
October 4, 2022
Pros: - exposure to new technologies
- really growing as a software engineer if given the opportunity to take ownership
- access to varied architecture, infrastructure, and development teams that are closely tied to each other
- fast paced
- good team bonding experience
- pay is comparable to FAANG
Cons: Didn't value me much as an intern. Developed test cases for the majority of the internship. Had a switch in management during the internship; the team was too large and chaotic in the midst of the team splitting. Regular 1-1s were cut to 15 minutes, which felt very to the point and not enough time to build a relationship, even virtually.

Turned to Bad Company
Senior Software Engineer • Current Employee
July 5, 2023

Pros: - You're part of a company legitimately trying to improve education.

- It's usually easy to take time off.
Cons: A shocking lack of talent in senior positions.
Always replacing things that were done wrong with a new way of doing things wrong.

A constant state of overdue projects makes people burn out or tune out.
