Good pay, competent peers, but everything else sucks
Good pay, competent peers, but everything else sucks
Competitive compensation, or at least it used to be.
Most non-staff engineers I met are great engineers that I can look up to and learn from.
Unaccountable staff engineers swoop in with lots of opinions to derail your project, which takes a lot of time and energy to fend off.
Tracks PR count and uses that to justify performance ratings.
Only end results of your own project delivered on time matters, leading to high tech debt and toxic relationships between teams that share a code base.

Stripe Interview Questions
Stripe Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
Interviewer was nice. The coding problem was similar to a real-world problem. The recruiter was knowledgeable and patient. Overall, my experience with the Stripe interview process was decent. I like that the coding problem was not LeetCode style.

First round recruiter screen, which I passed. There were questions about: * Times I mentored people * My experience * Why I'm looking for new roles * My most impactful project I passed the recruiter screen and was moved to a technical round on Zoo

I reached out to a recruiter from Stripe. After that, I scheduled a one-hour virtual interview. I had a good interview experience. The questions were not hard, but I made them too complex.
