Process
Hackerrank test followed by a bunch of interviews.
Initially, they came back after the test for a follow-up discussion. This got postponed, and then after a couple of days, I was informed that there was a system error and I didn't pass the test. I don't think it was a system error on Hackerrank, as I was able to see most of the test cases had passed for the solutions that I submitted.

5.0
Smart, nice people with an honest focus on making things better for the customers
Tech Lead • Current Employee
London, England, United Kingdom
August 18, 2020
Pros: My team is great – fun to work with and super smart.
You get lots of autonomy and trust.
I was worried the culture would be a little "WeWork"-y, but it's not.
I honestly believe most people there are trying to make things better for our customers.
Pretty open culture of feedback – people feel like they can challenge product decisions at any level.
Cons: I'm always super busy, so I have to be careful not to get overwhelmed. There was no handholding or induction process when I started (other than the company onboarding). I really liked this, but I could imagine for people who need more structure, it would be a challenge.

Growing pains still, weak tech leadership
Tech Lead • Current Employee
London, England, United Kingdom
November 7, 2019
Pros: Smart people, driven environment, very challenging.
Cons: Inconsistency: some leads are resting and vesting.
Some new people are political and will gain more power because they look for it.
Some old-timers are not suited to their role anymore, and the role outgrew them.
