Process
The interview asked me a few questions about why I applied to the role. Then, the technical part of the interview was to implement asynchronous API calls and process some data from the response, write a unit test, and an algorithm problem.

Worst job I had in 20 years
Software Engineer • Current Employee
September 9, 2023
Pros: Work-life balance, remote work.
Cons: Nice culture gone wrong.
When your core principle is being nice, rather than make a product that people want to use, you get fiefdom protecting, meaningless bureaucracy, B-grade talent, and promotion based on niceness. I had no idea how ugly this can become after years of cultural dysmorphia.
