Good Work, Needs Velocity
Good Work, Needs Velocity
It's good. It wants to be better.
Developer velocity & tooling are weak points.
The number of horizontal efforts and company-wide priorities makes it difficult to make progress sometimes.
Performance ratings and leveling are documented well on paper but not in practice.
There is a wide range of performance, quality, and skills in managers, even within the same level.
Leveling almost feels arbitrary.
Hold a consistent bar for all managers: pre-IPO, post-IPO, and when hiring.

Snowflake Interview Questions
Snowflake Interview Experiences
Engineering Manager
The interview process had five steps. Snowflake can move quickly and schedule these within a few days of each other, allowing you to complete the whole process in about two weeks. * Recruiter screen * Hiring manager screen * Two virtual interv
SWE Intern
I only got through the OA process. Probably the hardest OA I have taken. Make sure you prep your DSA well. I need to hit a 30-word minimum in order to review other posts.
Backend Engineer
The interview process was okay. Despite answering both coding questions, completing tests, and providing explanations, I did not move forward. The recruiter also did not provide feedback. It would be great if feedback is provided, which would help
