Glassdoor and Blind App are not the problem
Glassdoor and Blind App are not the problem
There are some really smart people here.
Hiring is getting increasingly difficult. There are enough better tech companies out there with better culture, better leadership, better benefits, and better pay.
Leadership: There is none. Too many incompetent and political people who only care about their own reputation. Decisions force smart people out.
Career progress is nonexistent. L4 to L5 is okay. L5 to L6 can happen. L6 to L7? (Eng and PM, not sure about the rest).
CEO: Insane. Cannot and will not delegate. Passionate about product but not actually good at it for the scale things are now. Cannot align people.
HR: Useless. Don't even know where to start with them. They care only if you have something that could damage the company publicly.
Twitch is all about gaming. Especially the game of politics.
Stop focusing on Glassdoor and Blind App. Fix actual problems, and these two will no longer be on that list!

What a mess. The recruiter was very inexperienced and messed up the whole process. My first call with the recruiter was not bad, and she mentioned we would proceed to the next steps. However, the recruiter was then completely MIA for over a month.

There was a recruiter talk, then a manager talk, then a phone screen, and finally onsite interviews. It was enjoyable and it felt more like a conversation rather than a grilling.

OA -> hiring recruiter -> technical and then I got rejected after that. It was super simple and chill. I don't know why I got rejected. Overall, I would say it was super chill and I just could have done better.
