Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
After the OA, I had a call with the HR hiring manager.
However, it seemed that the hiring manager was not very engaged during the conversation and didn't ask many questions.
The call ended relatively quickly, and I did not make it to the next round.

A great company to grow and learn
Forward Deployed Software Engineer • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
November 3, 2020
Pros: People are very smart.
There is room to grow. It's not uncommon to see people who have been in the company for 1-2 years becoming Leads.
Huge responsibilities from day 1.
"Choose your own adventure" -> You can create your own growth path in the company if you see the need for it. For example, if you work on X product/customer but you see that there is a need to develop another product, you can start working on that without an issue (as long as you don't jeopardize your other role).
D&I is big here. You can get as involved as you want with this, and that's awesome!
Overall, this is an amazing company. I love it.
Cons: Too much autonomy at times. This is also a pro, but being independent and figuring out things on your own is not for everyone.

High Pressure and Lots of Growth in First Year
Forward Deployed Software Engineer • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
February 13, 2022
Pros: - Most rapid growth in a role in 5 years of software experience.
- Most results and business-impacting work on my resume.
- High stakes and high pressure means I've been required to grow. I now have many stories about difficult situations and how I handled them well and poorly and learned from them. This is great for job interviews, builds the skills of a team lead and manager, and just makes me a more effective worker.
Cons: High-pressure, results-driven satisfying client demands means intermittent waves of pressure, leading to overtime. (Managers often encourage taking time off after working overtime.)
