Process
The process was a take-home task, an open-ended-ish tech interview, a culture interview, and a design interview. All of them were handled professionally and fairly. Though I'm not a fan of spending hours of my personal time on a take-home task, normally I don't do such tasks and stop the process if they ask me to, but Monzo handled it quite well.

A Great Place to Work with Smart, Driven People
Software Engineer • Current Employee
London, England
January 2, 2023
Pros: - Work alongside smart, driven and innovative people
- Collaborative environment where you're able to learn and grow
- Supportive company for you as a person outside of work
Cons: It is a bank, which means it's a regulated environment. Thus while we do ship frequently, there are several steps for governance that need to happen each time.
However in a fast paced environment, there's always work to pick-up even if you're waiting on approvals for the governance steps.
