Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Phone interview with potential colleagues. Initially, I was reached out to by HR based on my major. I then interviewed and was asked pragmatic questions about how I would complete the job. They seemed to not know precisely what they needed from me, which is understandable with a start-up.

Good Benefits, Bad WLB, Mid Comp
Software Engineer • Former Employee
San Francisco, California, United States
June 17, 2023
Pros: - Excellent, cushy benefits at the level you'd expect from a bigger tech company (although no 401k match).
- If you're early in your career, you'll definitely be given high-level work, which can help you grow quickly.
- There are some very smart engineers in some teams there.
Cons: The administration is out of touch with the teams and goes back on their word pretty frequently. It can feel like the wrong people get rewarded constantly. It's not crazy to work on some weekends and work more than 8-6. Projects come and go on whims; what you're working on might get cancelled or changed weekly.
