Employee-friendly; it deserves its good reputation
Employee-friendly; it deserves its good reputation
A healthy, friendly working environment.
Reasonable and mostly flexible hours, which is nice for people with kids.
Good salaries, benefits, time off, etc.
Technical challenges are good (but see further discussion in "cons").
Plenty of opportunities to switch teams within the company.
A well-communicated path for career advancement.
Our business in the end is financial. So, even though we are highly technical, we are probably not going to transform the software industry the way Google has, for example.

The response was really fast. It is relatively easy to pass the phone screening process and get on-site. However, the on-site interview was very hard. It's worth mentioning that HR was quite nice, and the on-site arrangements were satisfactory.

I'm in the first round of the interview process. It's a 20-minute question session to see what you like and don't like. The second round is a 2-hour coding assessment. The third is a behavioral question round. The last one is on-site.

I took the online test at HackerRank, and things went well. After a few days, I got a call from the recruiter, and a phone interview was set up.
