Process

I met the recruiter when they were on our campus, and I received an interview call about two weeks later. First, there was a phone interview which went over my resume.

Pros: Excellent pay, hard-working team.

Cons: Simply no dedication to user experience. The user experience team is made up of software engineers that dictate design decisions and do not encourage healthy debate or review of user desires. Extremely top-down. That's an absolute deal-breaker in this day and age. People constantly throw each other under the bus. There is a severe lack of community and an absolute surplus of individualist behavior.
