Disappointed in manager practices

Pros

Less toxic than many other companies

Cons

Disappointed in learning about unethical "hiring" processes that have carried over from the startup world. JZ interviews candidates only to give them a take home assignment have them try to solve an existing business problem for them. This signals both engineering "leadership" and talent is lacking.
