First technical round where they asked me to build an app, gave me 2 days for it and then discussed that in the first round. Had 2 more rounds after.. One technical and the other with a hiring manager.

Did they have a LC round

YOE and current TC?

Sirius XM dpqs83 OP Jul 29, 2022

It's up there.

Toast 828473 Jul 29, 2022

Pick Toast!

Sirius XM dpqs83 OP Jul 29, 2022

Any specific reason for you to say that?

Bloomberg Sdzr75 Jul 29, 2022

Ebay will pay 🥜

Sirius XM dpqs83 OP Jul 29, 2022

Really?? I thought they'd be somewhere around 180-200 plus RSU and joining bonus.

Turo would be too risky to join in current market conditions, if that’s one of the considerations

Sirius XM dpqs83 OP Jul 29, 2022

Well it definitely is. But I looked at their layoffs that happened in the near past and looks like they did a good job with handling that.

Amazon nJhH11 Jul 29, 2022

But i think it’s more about probability of getting laid off, if the business case is not strong even good leadership can’t do much.

What is restricted cash and how does it work?

Sirius XM dpqs83 OP Jul 29, 2022

Same as RSU. You just get 0.25 it at the end of each year.

In a risky market, and them being a high burn company, layoffs are justifiable at any moment. I was laid off from Turo during the start of COVID and the severance was a middle finger. I’m actually surprised they haven’t started layoffs again due to their cash position. My .02

The people there are dope though, every Eng manager can be a good friend!

Amazon nJhH11 Jul 29, 2022

There are lot of companies on verge of it. You need to give them another 3-6 months
