Process
A brief interview with an HR recruiter followed. Then, an abstract coding task involving a REST API was sent. The requirements were very generic, and I struggled to understand what was expected. I completed the task within a few days and received a rejection. I requested technical feedback but never got any.

Best company ever if you are willing to put in the effort and work hard
Senior Backend Engineer • Current Employee
Berlin, Germany
August 15, 2021
Pros: - Competitive salary
- Outstanding shares package
- Strongest experts/people surrounding you
- Ambitious company plans to conquer the world
Cons: - Work-life balance might suffer if you accept it and if you choose to overcontribute.
- This is the company where you can't be mediocre; it is hard because you won't feel like a part of the bigger game that everyone is involved in.
- You have to figure out a lot on your own and be initiative because there are few processes in place – hence tremendous opportunity to exercise your skills – and you have to take ownership of many things if you want changes to come. Not many people have this kind of stamina.
