Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Recruiter. Decomposition interview.
Three back-to-back technical interviews:
- Learning
- Decomposition
- Coding problem
Followed by the hiring manager interview.
I did not move forward after the three back-to-back interviews. While the questions were not that difficult, it was challenging on the third interview after the two hours of interviews prior.
Questions
Decomposition was revolved around designing a system for an app.

Smart Team, Boring Database Work
Forward Deployed Software Engineer • Current Employee
March 8, 2021
Pros: - Smart and diligent coworkers
- Nerd culture meets business sense
Cons: The work itself becomes boring soon. It's essentially the databases 101 challenge SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE, over and over again.
The promises of the contract offer were not honored in full: The starting date was pushed back several months on short notice (2 weeks). Stock was not granted in full. Many perks have been slashed after the IPO.
The starting salary is high for recent graduates but then stalls. Progression cannot keep up with other tech companies.
