Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks.
There was an initial CodeSignal, then a behavioral chat with the recruiter, and finally a coding interview with two questions, one easy and one medium, not too hard but not trivial.

Pros: Nice office, great work-life balance, free food and snacks, and decent benefits.
Cons: The team match process has limited flexibility and input.
CI/CD is kind of annoying, which is unexpected for a company of this size.
The office location is in a chaotic and dirty part of Manhattan.
