Intelligent people, bureaucratic leadership, and very slow promotion
Intelligent people, bureaucratic leadership, and very slow promotion
Smart engineers and a humble place to work. Good product and reputation.
Quite political and with top-heavy leadership and unrealistic, always cut-throat deadlines. Quite poor WLB. Slow or no career progression unless you are the lucky ones picked by founders.

I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter. The first step was a 30-minute phone call with the recruiter, where we discussed my experience and the company. The next round was a 1-hour phone screen, which was a system design interview.
