In a rough spot
In a rough spot
Great Product
Good engineers in some teams
Opportunities to learn
Good location
Difficult period for EVs, leading to instability in the company.
Preference to hire senior talent from big-name companies leads to compression of scope and a ceiling to promotion at senior levels.
Too many questionable roles and side projects.
Need more focus on engineering and manufacturing of vehicles.

Standard coding interview. Covered algorithms and data structures, design, and behavioral questions, along with a talk with the director. Questions were easy to medium in difficulty. The offer was handed in a week. Some scalability-related question

Recruiter phone screen. After that, a hiring manager screen. Discussed high-level ideas about a software stack. The interview process took less than two weeks. Got rejected after the hiring manager screen without any feedback.

Asked questions about projects on the resume, and then went into a LeetCode easy/medium C problem. Gave decent advice and help during the process and allowed time to talk about the problem after finishing the assessment.
