Process
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks.
The process consisted of six interviews in total:
- The first two were behavioral, focused on past experience, teamwork, and how I communicate technical ideas to different audiences.
- The third was a coding interview.
- The final three were situational problem-solving rounds, where I was given realistic customer or technical scenarios and asked to work through how I would approach and solve them.
Overall, the process was thorough and well-structured, and it tested both technical depth and the ability to think on your feet. Moving onto an onsite 2-hour interview. No idea what that is like...

Pros: Exciting work. Interesting problems to solve. Coworkers are mostly easy to talk to, and mostly everyone is trying to get things done instead of doing politics. So things actually get done quickly, which is already better than a lot of other companies in general.
Cons: Food is horrible.
HR responses to various suggestions are very political -- nothing gets done until higher management takes notice.
Mis-managed/dead projects teams do not work. Company POR changes quickly, so it's sometimes hard to avoid such teams when you first join.
Compensation is less than peer tech companies.
