Process

Absolutely dreadful interview process. The interviewers were quite aggressive and intimidating. They used trapping-style questions, trying to trick candidates into answering incorrectly by asking leading questions.

  • At-home coding exercise: REST API
  • In-person interview: Coding task and software engineering fundamentals discussion
  • CTO discussion about the future role

This company suffers from a seriously toxic atmosphere. I got the impression that everyone is competitive, stressed, and overworked. The CTO was also very unpleasant and smug.

I had absolutely no intention of accepting their offer, as they seem to be an awful employer.
