Staff Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States
Process
Recruiter interview. I asked about Ripple's legal issues and about competitors for their different products, especially for the cross-border payments one. I also asked about revenue/profitability and whether an IPO was possible. The recruiter didn't like these questions, so I wasn't invited to further interviews. Draw your own conclusions.

The people I've worked with here are professional and smart. I like my teammates, and enjoy the work that I do. Work/life balance is great. I've never worked more than 40 hours a week here, and scheduling PTO has been easy.Cons: I hear of politics, but I haven't seen much of it personally. Maybe I've been lucky.
