Process
It was quick and easy. We went through my own project with me explaining each part. Also, I was required to implement a new functionality of their choice, which was also an easy one.

It was amazing
Engineering Scholar • Current Employee
July 31, 2020
Pros: They gave me a full computer setup with a new laptop, monitor, mouse, and keyboard (all shipped to my house because of social distancing). They also gave swag and a nice houseplant to brighten up my space.
The stipend was reasonable, with a bonus before the start to help pay for Wi-Fi and a software subscription they wanted us to have.
Lots of networking opportunities to talk and connect with employees.
Really good work hours too.
Cons: The work bleeds out of work time.
A lot of the material is rushed over, and there is a lot of reviewing you have to do on your own time.
A lot of the time is spent on talks and networking, and coding is more of an afterthought.

Friendly Team, Unstable Management
Software Engineer • Former Employee
None
March 5, 2024
Pros: Lots of friendly engineers, pay was okay in theory.
Cons: Management is unstable, which reflects on the company as a whole. Every week, we would get an email about senior position changes and reorganizations.
The pay is too heavily reliant on unreliable stock.
