I applied online. The process took 2 months.
5-6 interviews on the same day. 4 of them are technical, coding interviews, and one of them assesses if you'll be easy to work with and know how to think through problems and design.

Pros: Good pay and benefits, decent work-life balance, flexible work (2 work from home days per week).
Cons: A lot of bureaucracy that increased over time.
A project can be ready but not launch for months due to various reviews.
Micromanagement, but this can be team-dependent.
Lately, every project is deemed urgent.

Pros: The atmosphere is very helpful and kind!
I remember I was a Software Intern starting out in this new company. From day one, even the work was challenging, but it soon paid off (literally)!
Google also pays well over average amounts and they also have perks like gyms and never-ending food!
Cons: Well, I can't say much, but when you start out, it may be very nerve-racking. But with the help you get, you can feel right in the community!
