Impactful Work, Micromanaged Team
Impactful Work, Micromanaged Team
Lots of work needs to be done, so lots of opportunity for impact.
C-suite used to be very transparent, and they generally seem competent and great to work with.
- Lots of micromanagement, and middle management in general that does not seem to know what they're doing.
- Very rare to see engineering efforts highlighted and pushed, except in the most superficial of ways.
- Removal of benefits.
Care a bit more about how things get built, and care about balancing the sales-heavy culture with re-prioritization towards engineering.

A coding interview will focus on problem-solving. It is not a LeetCode style, and testing coverage is not necessary. However, walking through the solution, analyzing complexity, and implementation are important. Don't forget to clarify questions.
