Sr. Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
A recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn. I had a 30-minute call with the recruiter, followed by a 45-minute technical resume deep-dive discussion with the hiring manager. It went really well, but then I never heard back from them. I followed up once and didn't hear back.
You can somewhat gauge company culture based on how they treat candidates during the interview process, and I got my answer. I wonder if the company's rating is genuine or not.

- 3.0Motivated coworkers and good pay, but poor managementSr. Software Engineer • Current EmployeeJuly 23, 2026Pros: Competitive pay and highly intelligent engineers.Cons: Management does not seem to care about employees' well-being. The return-to-office mandate is unpopular. The unspoken rule is that if you want to move up, you need to work overtime and on holidays. Management saddles teams with too many projects, thinking AI will make it possible, and then tells them to get on board or get out. There are aggressive, high-pressure product owners and management.
