Process
I applied online.
I had a brief chat with the recruiter. There were three technical interviews and two interviews with leadership. People were generally very friendly and helpful, but the whole process was a bit too long.

Pros: - Great benefits and that’s all I can think of
Cons: - Management: young managers that try hard to achieve but they are not able to listen, share or receive feedback to grow and improve. A lot of backstabbing, even to the point of bullying employees.
- HR: the leader and her team are absolutely worthless. We can not talk to them, share our feedback or concerns and be open.
- There is no work life balance. There are so many more issues.
