Very smooth and quick process. The recruiter was very quick in responding. I had two rounds of telephone interviews. Questions and coding exercise were fair. There is nothing to complain, really.

A great company to grow and learn

Pros: People are very smart. There is room to grow. It's not uncommon to see people who have been in the company for 1-2 years becoming Leads. Huge responsibilities from day 1. "Choose your own adventure" -> You can create your own growth path in the company if you see the need for it. For example, if you work on X product/customer but you see that there is a need to develop another product, you can start working on that without an issue (as long as you don't jeopardize your other role). D&I is big here. You can get as involved as you want with this, and that's awesome! Overall, this is an amazing company. I love it.
Cons: Too much autonomy at times. This is also a pro, but being independent and figuring out things on your own is not for everyone.
Long hours and hard work, but worth the pay

Pros: Great salary. Working with some of the smartest people. Prestige.
Cons: Still a job. Could earn a lot more working a few years and then starting your own company. Long hours. Can't work on side projects or investments.
Great company and culture

Pros: Loved the people and the environment.
Cons: More busy at times, but it's the only real con.
