Process
I was reached out to by a recruiter who set up a phone call to discuss the position.
After that, an algorithm round was scheduled, followed by a systems round.
The algorithm round was quite standard and not too difficult. However, the topics recommended for the systems round were much too broad. In actuality, the interviewer focused on asking very specific details that were impossible to study for within the given timeframe.
Other than that, the recruiter was very friendly and the process was very fast, but the overall experience was disappointing in the end.

A well-distributed culture of seeking impact and keeping productive, which, along with a considered hiring approach, means that everyone you encounter is bright and eager to help you get things done. A low-touch management style is encouraged, with a focus on growth and getting blockers out of the way.Cons: High public visibility when you cause the site to crash. No 401(k) match. Hard to keep up with all that is going on.
