Process
Technical phone screen: Easy and Medium LeetCode problems.
Followed by a 1-hour technical interview. Mainly trivia and behavioral questions. I'm not sure how they can judge a hire based off of this.
The dumb thing was... the recruiter ghosted me, followed by an automated rejection email.
HOWEVER, the recruiter reached out again two weeks later asking if I was still on the market. They scheduled literally the same interview with the same interviewers. I asked if it was a mistake, and guess what...
Ghosted again. They did not own up or give any clarification. Don't waste your time here.

- 3.0Beware of the long working hours and incompetent product leadersSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeSan Jose, California, United StatesMay 8, 2023Pros: Pay was decent, except that the stock only started vesting after 1 year. Eric Yuan is a leader with empathy.Cons: 1. Have to work China hours if you speak Mandarin, which leads to bad WLB. 2. The product head and PMs don't know what they are doing, so there's little revenue in the product. Hard-working engineers were let go. 3. Managers are incompetent to manage.
