Process
I had the interview with three people. All of them were from the SF office and were Stanford alums. They were friendly. Apart from asking the "tell me about yourself" question, the first two interviews focused on coding, and the last one was purely behavioral.
Questions
Both coding rounds asked LeetCode Hard questions. I was able to solve them in their entirety but was not very good at identifying corner cases, which I feel is why I didn't get the offer. The questions were based on Strings and Arrays.

- 1.0No career growth in sight!!Software Engineer • Current EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesOctober 24, 2023Pros: - Remote work from home - No vesting period on RSUsCons: - No career growth in sight. Have gone through 4 different managers. - One manager was let go before the yearly review and was given low-performance reviews out of the blue in order to not give a pay raise. - Managers suck. They literally don't do anything but push aggressive timelines on you and manipulate you into saying yes all the time. - They also want you to prepare all the docs that they should be preparing. They literally don't do any work but act as a middleman between higher-ups. - Initially joined with 3 engineers and now down to me handling the workload of 3 and still no promotions. - Professionally toxic! - If you are not an E5, you have 3 years to get there from E4 to E5. If not, you are fired.
