Cheesy to say, but a place where you can work with friends
Great culture.
Coworkers hold themselves and each other to a high bar for excellence, but not in a toxic way, focusing on personal growth opportunities.
Coworkers are usually down to take breaks and socialize with each other, whether it be coffee breaks or happy hour.
Engineering is always solid. The caliber of all coworkers I’ve interacted with is very high, and I’ve never come back from an engineering-related discussion without a clear path that doesn’t make me feel the dread of tedious work.
Teams usually try to stay on the latest technologies, readability, and good practices without introducing too much thrash.
The on-call schedules are a team effort and never feel like it’s one person against the world.
Management has been pretty transparent and flexible. We have benefits and a flexible WFH policy (currently a hybrid MWF in-person schedule, but flexible with your manager).
Management could be even more transparent, but it’s something they’re aware of and taking measures to improve on.
CEO is frugal, but with the current economic climate, not really a bad thing.
Could be a little more diverse in employee makeup.
Keep up the good work! 👍

The interview process at Glean included an initial technical screening and then a final onsite round. The first round interview was not too difficult, but it was not the traditional LeetCode-style interview.

Made it to the final round, which consists of a 2-hour assessment and 2 live technical interviews. The 2-hour assessment is ridiculously long, and I guess they legitimately expect people to finish all of it. One technical interview touched upon an
