Great company. Needs better engineering rigour
Great company. Needs better engineering rigour
- Good work-life balance.
- Decent base pay.
- Decent tech stack.
- Tech-focused decisions to a certain extent.
- Decent benefits: Health, Cult pass, Lunch (really bad).
-
Not a tech-first company.
-
Fast delivery is still prioritized over quality (design/code).
-
Extremely unhelpful US "folks", who constantly berate how Indian devs are subpar to their devs (who, by the way, have proven themselves nowhere outside of Wayfair). Some US devs are very smart and helpful but somewhat arrogant.
-
Asking questions to US "folks" is a crime. The "folks" in the US are born with amazing superhero-like skills to just read the thoughts of the product team and other devs and never need to question them.
-
Managers here cannot fight/convince the senior "folks" in the US very easily because of the team structure and dynamics.
-
Of course, favoritism and politics. No company is devoid of those.

The interview experience was easy and fun, with lots of tricky questions designed to confuse. However, confidence was the key that made me successful in cracking the interview.
