J'ai postulé via une autre source. J'ai passé un entretien chez Art.com
Entretien
If you can't find a job anywhere in the valley and this is the ONLY offer you receive, seek a new profession.
These people are utterly unprofessional and have brainwashed their employees into thinking they can't do better in this industry.
I was introduced to Art.com through one of my networks and had a "technical screen" with one of their lead developers. It was a complete and utter NIGHTMARE.
The "technical" questions were whatever, simple fluff about random intricacies and edge cases about JS/their specific stack. My interviewer asked me if I had any questions for him. I did, and started off by asking about the working culture there. From his answer, I simply branched into other questions based on information he willingly volunteered. In a thirty-minute span of time, here's what I learned:
+ Art.com has been around since before the dotcom bust, but they're still "trying to get back that startup culture vibe"
+ Last year, they forced their engineering team to enable their frontend refactor (from AngularJS to React) in production right before the holiday shopping season
+ This in turn caused their engineers to work 100+ hour weeks during October/November/December because they were required to fix bugs as they appeared in production
+ However, this lead developer "had great respect for the leadership team" for their decision and felt that they did enough to mitigate burnout -- by taking everyone out to lunch one day and then sending them to the Oakland Zoo for a volunteer outing
+ Engineers typically work 60-80 hour weeks, more during the end of each quarter because of unrealistic goals set by executive leadership and a lack of backbone by development and managers to push back on those goals
There's a lot more, but I'm going to stop here. They invited me onsite, but I quickly rejected. No way I was willing to entertain this, even if it were to just obtain a competing offer. What a trainwreck of a company.
