Process
I had two interviews: one with the director of the department and one with two employees from the department (but not from the same team I was applying to). The first was very conversational; the second was more structured and also included some test support questions.
When I first talked to the recruiter, she was very excited to tell me that once I submitted my application, the whole process would only take 10 days. It took 5 weeks from start to finish. The timing wasn't a problem for me, but I found it strange that they put so much emphasis on the quick turnaround, and then the actual process was 3.5 times longer.

- 3.0Pivoting to a terrible placeFrontend Engineer • Current EmployeeJuly 24, 2023Pros: They pay well, and there are a lot of great people.Cons: Recently, 10% of staff were laid off, concentrating in areas like product, UXR, and data. This helped Zapier make data-driven product decisions that led to their success for the last decade. They are putting all their proverbial eggs in the AI basket and actively neglecting areas of the product to do so. Also, they recently significantly cut work from home benefits, anniversary benefits, conference budget, and bonus payout % for folk in senior positions and below.
