Smart Team, Slow Growth
Smart Team, Slow Growth
Great company, strong management. There's no denying the intelligence of most, if not all, of the higher-ups. Keep it up!
Moving up the ladder can be much slower than it should be. The tendency to value long-term goals leads to a fair amount of technical debt that isn't rewarded when paid off.
See my cons above; more reward for people that put in work to make things easier for other engineers. Too much engineering time is spent debugging or reading code that's just old or out of date or misdocumented.

First, an online assessment, then the HR call, then several rounds of technical interview (you need to solve data structure/algorithm problems), and finally a manager interview (mostly behavioral questions).

LeetCode basically doesn't care about experience or brains. LeetCode is kinda weird, though. But what can you expect from FAANG besides that? Just save your time and energy and apply to a real software company.

The first round was behavioral, focusing on STAR method-type questions. They mostly asked about being a team player and having a positive attitude. This was followed by three LeetCode rounds. Two medium and one medium-hard question were asked durin
