After submitting applications through the website, I was contacted by two different outside agencies who were filling long term contract roles with similar sounding job titles. I was ghosted after first round interviews for two roles. All interviewers I met seemed overworked, distracted with incoming messages, and extremely stressed. I learned the culture is similar to Amazon, with a focus on written documentation, and meeting heavy. Listed as an operating principle on their website: "Move with urgency and focus. We move with speed on what matters most and take the time to invest in what will make us faster tomorrow. Whereas many companies get slower until they’re eventually mired in mediocrity, we aspire to become the world’s fastest company." Lack of alignment across teams and surprise fourth round interviews after I was told an offer was coming, I moved forward with another opportunity due to the lengthy process.

I met with the hiring manager and a product partner for 30 minute interviews. The hiring manager interview felt a bit clinical, not a lot of warmth or curiosity. The product partner interview was a better candidate experience.
