Process
Initial screening. Then scheduled for a 75-minute interview, with a coding aspect. The interviewers didn't follow this schedule and ended the meeting after 30 minutes. It seemed to me like I was interviewing for a position that was already filled.

Pros: Benefits:
* Salary is competitive
* Remote work culture
* Relaxed work culture
Cons: For non-immigrants, it’s not the right place to work.
They have a stupid policy of filing for a Green Card after 4 years of working at the NYT. If they don’t change this policy in the next few months, I am planning to leave, and so many people will leave.
Higher employee churn rate. A lot of employees are leaving The New York Times.
The technology side of the group is low-invested. As a result, they are still using a technology stack which is 20 years old.
