Hi all,
I've passed the interview and are currently in the team match phase for G Zurich office. No offer yet (doing team match first I guess). It is taking a long time - allegedly new head counts need to be approved.
- Is anybody here working as a SWE in G Zurich willing to share their experience? How is the work environment? WLB?
- Do you have a team to recommend or do you know of a team that is looking for new people?
As our proprieties in life tend to change - I'm looking for input from a mid-career 30 something point of view.
Thanks!

Hospital stays in a shared room are covered, but private room costs extra. Ambulance ride costs extra. Non essential cosmetic treatments not covered. Dental not covered and pretty expensive, there are optional insurances you can get but generally it is a total ripoff in CH, people do their teeth in EU for way cheaper, paying cash.
Sorry this does not answer your question.

I was in a similar position before. I cleared HC and was waiting for a team match for a long time.
It took me about 3 months to find a team due to low head count. There is nothing you can do - just wait and constantly ping your recruiter.
Do you mind sharing which level are you being considered for?
You can pick, laptop or whiteboard. I started on whiteboard for design, and moved to laptop for coding.
Just have to warn you, that this team matching can take several months. I’m still waiting from July :(
