Great place to work -- just don't turn 55
Great place to work -- just don't turn 55
Tech is pretty good. People share what they know. Office spaces are nice.
Once you turn 55, reasons are found to get rid of you. Brown-noses get ahead here. Management is not good at recognizing talent.
Just because someone turns 55 doesn't mean they suddenly stop contributing. Once I was let go, I went to a competitor where I now drive all Cloud solutions and GTM efforts. It's fun to see F5 copying my Cloud solutions and blog posts now. ;)

Software Engineer
First applied for the job and got an interview call in 2 weeks. First-round lasted for about 60 mins. Had some coding questions. Got 2/2 on coding questions correct but didn't get selected for the next round. Really didn't know the exact reason.
Software Engineer
The interview was standard: a coding question, a design question, and of course, a little bit about my background. Every single one of the interviewers was extremely nice and made the experience much more enjoyable.
