Pros: When the initial role I applied for closed, the recruiter took the time to match me with another team for the Software Engineer position and supported me throughout the interview process. I really appreciated that.
Since joining, the team has been fantastic, and I’ve been learning a lot. Everyone’s been welcoming, collaborative, and eager to help.
I’m currently contributing to a new greenfield initiative, which has been an exciting opportunity to build something from the ground up.
Overall, a great experience so far!
Cons: Overall good, nothing major to call out.
