Intense but impactful
Intense but impactful
I have full ownership of my project and make virtually all design decisions.
Code review is fast, effective, and helpful.
Easy to work on high-impact projects - lots of drudgery has been automated away.
Coworkers are competent and enjoy sharing their knowledge.
Tons of free stuff all the time:
- Food
- Clothes
- Housing
- Events
IT is frictionless; it's easy to get high-quality hardware quickly, even out of vending machines.
Very open about almost all aspects of the company.
Management stays out of the way and is focused on helping you work well.
Work/life balance is insane. I and many other interns often work 10+ hours a day and weekends.
Pressure is very high.
The open office floor plan can be loud and stressful. It feels like it hurts more than it helps.
Work/life balance is difficult to deal with for a lot of people.
Science is against open office plans. More personal spaces would be great for introverted people in the company.

Production Engineering Intern
I applied online. It was a short LeetCode-style process with a start on multiple-choice Linux knowledge. The experience was fairly good, and the interviewer was good. I would describe the overall process as very good. Their process was: - A quiz -
Production Engineering Intern
Easy initial screening call going over system administration basics, a follow-up coding interview with basic algorithmic and style questions, and then a production engineering focused interview going into system internals.

They give you materials to study. There were two rounds: one LeetCode style round of two medium-like questions in about 50 minutes, and one OS and networking round. Just make sure you go through the recommended materials well.
