Process
The recruiter was great!
The second and third interviews were a bit odd.
It seems like the company is still run like a startup, and culture is not the priority.
1st round: Recruiter answering culture-based questions 2nd round: Hiring manager 3rd round: Panel of department leaders

Pros: Very collaborative environment. Multiple teams working together, continuously hitting major milestones is amazing!
We were able to iterate as fast as the ecosystem allows. Definitely exciting every day of the week.
Great perks and growth! I felt very valued.
Cons: Aggressive timelines can push for long hours. I enjoyed this aspect, but some didn't.
I believe with multiple projects running, those that hit critical milestones were energizing, while other projects that may not find as much success were not. These appended to the list of "learning experiences" for many.
Perks are fantastic, but there are no roles where "coasting" is an option.
