There are some very hardworking ICs doing all they can, even without any career growth.
This company has no culture at all, and this is a top-down issue. The CEO would only talk about business performance and nothing about your mental health, your well-being, or anything else.
This is the first company I know of that would retrieve your work visa immediately after you left. This says a lot.
People build products here because the leadership wants something, and you just implement it with no data and no research. It’s impossible for ICs to push back because the leadership thinks they know everything and they are absolutely right.
A lot of the people in leadership got to their current position because they have been here for many, many years, although they really aren’t capable of their jobs.
Fix everything.
It was a hard process. I got lucky on a lot of the questions. Mostly LeetCode medium/hard. The engineers were really great. The hiring manager was great. Got an offer $70k above asking.
It was pretty hard because I could not solve the problems it gave. There were two LeetCode hards. The interviewer was nice, where he walked me through. The whole process was friendly.
I had a phone interview where I was asked about my experience and the kinds of projects I have worked on. I was also told about the team that I would be working with.
