- Free lunch
- Strong co-workers at the IC level
Empty promises from executives. You will get laid off. Even with the recent lifeline ($250M), Flexport is on its ropes, and its runway is very short.
They claim to have far superior technology when compared to competitors, but the entire company runs on a 10-year-old Ruby on Rails monolith. Build time is usually 2+ hours.
The company was BARELY profitable in 2021/2022 when rates were 10X what they are today. Flexport will never return to anything remotely profitable.
Just shut down the company now, so that you can still pay severance to existing employees and give your investors some of their money back. That is what honest and responsible business leaders would do.

I was contacted by their recruiter and had a 30-minute conversation. A week and a half later, I had a tech screen. Then, two weeks later, I did the all-day interview, which included: * Discussion with the hiring manager * Coding interview * Project

Standard combination of LeetCode and behavioral questions. Very responsive recruiting team and professional hiring manager. Operating on par with what you would expect from high-growth startups or big tech. Was impressed with the team.
