Process
Three rounds of interviews.
The first was with a recruiter, who asked surprisingly specific questions related to the job description to narrow down qualified candidates.
The latter rounds were with the actual manager and team.
Questions
No programming questions were specifically asked. A lot of concepts were covered.

Miss the Bamtech days
Software Engineer • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
January 15, 2021
Pros: Exciting products. Amazing industry for job security right now. Culture varies greatly by team, but some are very positive and supportive. Improvements are being made in the D&I space.
Cons: Benefits get worse and worse every year as we stray further from our BamTech roots. There's no added compensation to make up for legacy employees having to transition to the Disney benefit plan, which means worse health insurance that is no longer fully covered by the company. This has caused a lot of great employees to move elsewhere in the tech sector with more competitive salary and benefits. Leadership doesn't seem to care about retention or has no plans to do anything about this constant complaint.
