Behavioral questions based on Unity's values.

Technical questions related to C#, live coding and problem-solving focused on data structures and algorithms, with some low-level system design.

Pros: I have never been bored.
There is a strong feeling of empowerment at Unity. Developers have a lot of freedom and are very passionate about the engine.
There is a great work/life balance. I have never experienced anything even close to "crunch".
The company's use of Slack is amazing. I have never worked for such a large company that is so well connected. Everyone is approachable and very helpful.
Lots of socials and travel to interesting events, etc.
Cons: Onboarding can be tricky. There is a lot to take on, and things are always changing as the company is growing so fast and often reacts very quickly.
There are some key teams that seem to be understaffed, which can add delays if you need help from that team.

Pros: - As I expected, the worldwide teams are generally open-minded, and hierarchies are flat.
- Everyone seems approachable, including leads and upper management.
- People I met seem open to the degree that they are clear about flaws and things they want or need to improve (product flaws, workflows, communication, etc.).
- We can be bold and try or support things we believe in within our direct or wider circles of concerns/teams.
- The company is not only focused on products but also takes time and resources to improve as a company and look into humanitarian topics.
- The company is big enough to find thousands of interesting things to learn and many challenges for the foreseeable future in tech, tools, services, and initiatives.
Cons: - Ramping up on big teams like this during COVID-19 is harder than on smaller teams. Still, one can learn to pull information and meet people. (Again, teams/people are very approachable via Slack/Zoom in chats and video calls.)
