Great engineers, awful leadership
Great engineers, awful leadership
Great benefits, decent compensation, and a good selection of engineering talent.
Leadership and managers are totally incompetent. The process is more important than results to them.
Managers will say one thing while meaning another. This is the worst work management I've worked with in my career.
Top-level leadership has way too much direct influence over work.
Focus on what works with individual teams and engineers. The process needs to work with engineering, not against it.

Stripe Interview Questions
Stripe Interview Experiences
Senior Software Engineer
I had a call with a recruiter. I was asked general questions, such as: * What is the highlight of your career? * Why do you want to join Stripe? After that, I had a screening coding interview.
Senior Software Engineer
The interview process was similar to other larger tech companies. There were 5-6 45-minute interview segments, most involving just one interviewer. One of the segments was having lunch with an employee, which was very nice.
Senior Software Engineer
Super clueless recruiter for an initial phone call that was basically a waste of time. Asked me irrelevant trivia questions while telling me how great the company was and how anyone who doesn't see it is missing the mark. Talked my ear off...
