Process
I applied online. The process took four weeks.
The process is documented and shared. I got to the full loop. The behavioral questions aren't trick questions, and the four questions in the document are what they will focus on. There are no trick questions and constant detailed feedback as you progress. You will end up knowing what you need to work on if you don't succeed.

Pros: The Platform team have put a lot of effort into making every engineer's life really easy. There is free lunch from street food vendors twice a week. There are meeting-free Fridays, and time every month to work on a side project.
Cons: Go isn't Rust.
I miss enums.

Lots of work to do. Loads of opportunities for doing things for the first time

Pros: It is a start-up and that means there is never a shortage of things to do. Being so young it also means there is the opportunity to build stuff for the first time that I've not had in bigger companies. People are nice and talented.
Cons: It is a bank and that means there are more rules to follow.
You can ship pretty easily but sometimes all the governance gets pretty tiring.
