Process
It was an awesome process that was not LeetCode-style. It asks real problems that the company actually faced. There were four rounds in total: an OA, then a recruiter screening, then an OA review, and finally a technical round. The recruiter did take some time to respond.

There's a lot of competent people there, but leadership is letting them down
Senior Software Engineer • Current Employee

Pros: I worked with a lot of very smart engineers and talented designers there.
Cons: You'll probably read this in other reviews, but one of the co-founders is extremely nitpicky and aggressive when reviewing code (which he does a lot).I also know of instances of him calling someone an idiot and outright yelling at people in the office.

Haven't been here long, but I'm loving it so far
Senior Front End Engineer • Current Employee
Oakland, CA
February 28, 2018
Pros: Coworkers are friendly and talented. So lunches are fun, and there's always a person a couple cubes away to help you get unblocked. I feel like a company mentioning they have a good work/life balance is like a person telling you they don't like drama -- if it were true, they wouldn't be bringing it up.
Start time is flexible; tasks are well-scoped and well-documented; and no one seems overworked. The "legacy" code here is like six months old, yet we still seem to be getting things done. A credit to the team and the culture, I suppose.
Cons: It'd be nice to grow more diverse as we introduce new members to the team.
