Process
The interview felt drawn out but fair.
In total, it took a long time to get from the initial recruiter screening to the final round.
The content seemed fair; they want to assess your level of technical competence and understand if your experience is a match for the job.
None of the questions felt like "gotcha" coding questions, but algorithms and data structures were still very much a focus.

Love my team and boss
Platform Engineer • Current Employee
Santa Clara, California, United States
October 30, 2024
Pros: I love my boss and the team I work on. Our VP and SVP are also very supportive and open to discussions and input. The benefits are excellent, there's interesting work, and you're left alone when you're on PTO. At least in engineering and platform engineering, you'll be treated like an adult and trusted to do your work without any micromanaging. The vast majority of people working here are genuinely smart people who really do want to help you solve problems.
Cons: Some departments are not run as well. Some teams employ people who are quick to anger, or don't really seem to do anything or contribute in any way on projects/collaborations. As with any enterprise, there are also some straight-up incompetent people whose mere presence is mystifying.
