Lots of competent colleagues; you will work with good engineers who can get things done. The infra is pretty good which enables you to be productive. Perks are great and all-cash compensation is pretty nice too.
Management in engineering is so-so from my experience, really good explicit communication but also not willing to put the right process in place to make planning and execution as efficient as it could be. The company is changing a lot right now as it transitions from the old no-level world to a more typical organization with lots of juniors, fair number of seniors, and a few staff+. I think the change will be for the best in the long run but the culture hasn't quite adapted yet.
I have my call sceduled for next week to go over the offer. I have a competing offer from another FANG company. Is it possible they will offer less because of covid and the market being low ? They told me there isnt much to negotiate and the offer will be valid for 48 hours. -update accepted Netfli...Read more

Last week I signed an offer with Netflix. I wouldn’t have done that with the current news.

I accepted net...Read more
