Initial phone call for basic information, where I set up time for another phone interview.
The first phone interview included two parts: case study and fit.
The second round phone interview was also divided into two parts: fit and a marketing strategy discussion.
Every person I spoke to was friendly and helped if I ever got stuck.
Questions

CVS Health Work Experiences
- 4.0Big company, great cultureStrategic Product Development • Former EmployeeWoonsocket, Rhode Island, United StatesSeptember 5, 2019Pros: Great culture and community overall.Cons: Huge company, hard to take ownership of work.
- 3.0A decent place to work, but not very tech-focusedSenior Software Engineer • Former EmployeeNovember 11, 2025Pros: I worked with some great people.Cons: They're moving in the wrong direction with tech decisions, pushing forward quickly with little regard for quality or long-term thinking. Lots of mobile engineers work too much -- nights and weekends, even. This makes little sense since you can't quickly push a production fix to the App Store or Play Store; there's a whole review process that slows things down. So working production support over a weekend as a mobile engineer makes zero sense.
- 4.0A Mixed Bag at Aetna/CVS HealthStaff Level Engineer • Current EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesNovember 9, 2025Pros: Access to free upskilling resources and opportunities to develop deep healthcare expertise while working with cutting-edge technologies. The company actively adopts new tech trends, and strong remote work policies offer genuine flexibility.Cons: New employees joining at the junior level face a lengthy path to equity compensation, with no RSUs available until reaching the Lead level—typically a 4-5 year timeline. Additionally, compensation challenges include non-competitive base pay, limited bonus structures, and modest annual raises.
