Good Culture, Slow Hr
Good Culture, Slow Hr
Strong culture, huge investment in diversity and inclusion, great work-life balance (manager and organization dependent), mission of the company and how it makes money aligns a little bit better with my social values, flexible work.
Not a lot of room for growth in the top levels. Compensation is quite a bit lower than the competition. HR seems to have outsourced much of the actual work typically done by HR, so response times to questions and requests for action can be quite slow. Flexible work is great, but the company is still treating remote work like it's a perk instead of like a new normal, so there aren't many perks in that regard.

It wasn't actually an interview, but the test for Microsoft Engage. It was quite good, and DSA and aptitude questions were asked. The DSA questions were quite easy, and I didn't find a problem with those. The aptitude questions were similar.

I applied through a staffing agency. The interview consisted of four LeetCode-style questions. The interviewers were very generous with the time and gave you several hints. I recommend reading up and studying basic graph and string parsing questions
