Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Screening call with the recruiter, then sent a HackerRank test to complete.
The next stage was a 90-minute interview with two engineers. It was fairly in-depth, with technical scenarios and a whiteboard-type exercise.
All interviews were done on Google Hangouts, so I did not see the office.
Questions
Algorithms, data structures, SOLID principles, etc.

Good, but not as I expected at the beginning

Pros: - Relocation
- Nice perks
- Colleagues
- Travel around branches
Good place for learning about product engineering. They pushed you to contribute more to the product itself.
Cons: No drama, but in fact some drama happens.
Put out ego, but there are a lot of egocentric people in the company.
I have high expectations and seemed happy for the first few months, until I was humiliated by one person's comment on my feedback.
One out of nine people who reviewed me gave very good feedback; one guy had mostly critics.
I just hope I can pass it.
