I've been anti hw problem given it requires no investment of time by the potential employer. If it was a short hw .. say max of an hour or two followed by a discussion of it (where discussion was the interview) I might be okay with it. I'm definitely not okay with the hw being step 1 of the usual shit process.

I'd like style guidance on these kind of tasks. One place got turned off that I put unit tests on a small toy problem.

Probably don't want a job that objects to unit tests, if you can avoid it.
