            Pros

            Management really encouraged you to take time to talk to anybody in the company you wanted. Managers didn't have private offices. I never felt weird talking someone with a title. They also paid really well and had great benefits. The free chocolate was nice too.

            Cons

            The structure of the company was really complicated and ever changing. Some of the offices and plants are in really out of the way locations.

                    Cons

                    The culture needs improvement. They are very supporting of their long term employees but new associates are not set up to succeed. The management wants to take no accountable to help teach and coach new hires to be successful.

                      Cloud Performance Engineering Lead

                      Workday interview tips needed. The role I am applying to is a site reliability engineer role. I am not sure what to expect. Of course it’s a technical role so I do expect those questions. I am wondering if they go extra hard and how many rounds? I read somewhere that they do 5 rounds. Either way any tips are@welcome.

                      I’m currently in the several round interview process with 4 companies at the moment the past 3 weeks. Would you keep applying to other companies or take a break until you hear something back? Starting to feel a little interview fatigued.
