Great company, but the chaos is exhausting
Great company, but the chaos is exhausting
Fast-paced. The company is undergoing a tech overhaul. Robust junior developer program. Lots of opportunities to make a difference, given the tech debt.
Given the company's sheer enormity, it is quite chaotic. In my short 18 months here, I've been reorganized at least six times. Each manager seems to be a middle manager, with someone else making decisions. Most are untrained, bureaucratic toady managers.
Please pay more attention to your senior talent; they're holding your projects together.
Manage your engineers like the highly skilled, highly-educated experts they are, rather than second-class citizens to the bankers.
Some of us have the same pedigree as the banker roles, yet are still last in line for bonuses.
There are many signals about the importance of our roles, but none of them are carrots.

Coding interview first, through HackerRank, then recruiter and hiring manager rounds. The recruiter round was very subjective and based on the person, while with the hiring manager, I had to go into technical details and talk about system design.
