Process
The interview was about 45 minutes long and seemed to have gone well. However, I received a rejection the next day.
I answered the initial trivia question. Perhaps I spent too long on it, but I eventually solved it before the interview ended. I'm assuming they were looking for flawless execution on this part.
I don't know what else they were looking for.

Patreon Work Experiences
- 5.0Well-positioned company with lots of opportunitySoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeJune 6, 2022Pros: One of the original creators of the creator economy with strong brand amongst creators. Company founded and run by a CEO who anchors company principles on doing right by creators. Engineering culture is getting strong with a lot of amazing folks joining. Company with a lot of history, but the product still feels "early," so there's a lot to build and own for an individual.Cons: Typical growing pains for a company at this size. A lot of areas need owners and staffing.
