Devops Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
July 1, 2021
Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Long and tedious. I had 8 (!!!) interviews over a span of 6 weeks.
- 3 with the hiring manager (technical and non-technical)
- 3 non-technical interviews
- 2 purely technical (problem-solving, based on some broken imitation software)
The sad part is that after spending so much of my time, they simply went into ignore mode, with no feedback whatsoever. I almost believed they were truly different regarding caring for people (they like to repeat it every time). Unfortunately, that didn't extend beyond words.
Questions
Fix backend app deployment on Linux or finish Terraform VPC setup in AWS.

Pros: Gusto is solving an important problem for small businesses.
Cons: Gusto presents itself as a people-first company, but in time, you’ll learn that management views employees as cogs in the machine. An engineer called out leadership on a policy change that would disproportionately affect URMs. The CEO defended the policy change and noted that there’s plenty of diverse candidates Gusto can hire to backfill any URMs that would need to leave because of the change. Yep, they are committed to diversity!
Good luck on building an inclusive environment for their “resources.”
