Food. The pantry is stocked with drinks, snacks, cereal, and more. Catered meals are provided on Fridays, and there's an $18 Grubhub stipend each week, which is about one meal. It would be nice to have another day's worth of food.
Meet new people during lunch; everyone eats together. Everyone is nice.

Code reviews can be really meticulous, to a point that I think is ridiculous. This may not be a con for you, but the code is clean. I feel like that can still be achieved without this level of nitpicking.
Teams are siloed. I like to work on a breadth of problems, from ops to SRE to typical engineer work (startup environment). You won't do that here, but there is a set of tools to do what you may need. You can also propose a feature and offer to implement it yourself.

The interview process involved: * A phone screen with HR. * A 30-minute remote, live coding test. * A 5-hour in-person meeting at their Bryant Park location with two engineers, one designer, one PM, and one senior dev manager. A decision was
Came through Hired. The entire process took about one week. I also was expecting an offer, so we expedited the process. Overall, I felt that the process was easy. Design interviews are heavily weighted and will determine compensation. Coding question
