Process
Good and well-structured. Sometimes tricky, but overall good enough to test my capabilities. I liked the well-structured interview process.
There were five different interviews, including a coding test and system design.
I appreciated the way they organized and scheduled the interviews.

Great people, but backstabbing
Software Engineering Manager • Current Employee
London, England, United Kingdom
September 23, 2022
Pros: Great people around. The best I've ever met!
Super ambitious goals.
Great benefits.
WFH flexibility.
Cons: Performance review. It works this way:
1. Leadership escalates project X.
2. You clearly don't see any impact of X, but have to disagree and commit.
3. You give the project to an engineer from your team (even if they disagree).
4. The engineer executes the project.
5. PSC comes, and the engineer does not receive credit for X because, guess what, no impact.
And this loop happens again and again. You build a special skill on how to dodge from these crappy, non-impactful projects.
