Nothing. The entire company is a train wreck and an abomination of epic proportions. It’s shameful people have been brainwashed by Spotify’s propaganda about how great it is to work for the company. This place is a hot mess dumpster fire.
If you are a woman, recruiters will low-ball you to ensure you are at the lowest end of the salary band.
And if you are trying to professionally negotiate your comp package, don’t worry. The unprofessional recruiter will catch an attitude.
The “leadership” at this company is a complete joke. A bunch of incompetent, insecure, and inept men acting like they know how to do their jobs. Trust and believe, they do not.
The company dynamics are also incredibly racist. There are blatantly discriminatory acts happening to almost every single employee of color on a daily basis.
Don’t work here unless you want to waste years of brain cells dealing with a bunch of men that act holier-than-thou as they ramble on and on about how Spotify is a world-class engineering organization, while bumbling around and eating everyone’s time and money with their ineptitude.

As a hiring manager, I have probably interviewed hundreds of candidates, created interview processes from scratch, and worked closely with the talent team on hiring strategy. By far, this is the worst interview I have ever witnessed in my career. It
