I interviewed there a few years back. I bailed on the interview within the first fifteen minutes, the first time I’ve ever done that. I told them they’d given me the ick — not my most professional moment, admittedly! But it was an awkward and unpleasant interview.

They spent the first ten minutes of the call predicting the death of software engineering (this was a software engineering interview) and complaining about expensive devs (ahem). I wouldn’t have minded so much if the only demo apps they had on their website weren’t some of the worst, non-native iOS apps I’ve ever seen. Truly awful.

A month or two later I noticed on LinkedIn that a dodgy CTO I’d worked with, who had attempted to avoid paying me (and did avoid paying several colleagues of mine), had joined there too. It felt like a good fit.

Yeah, I have to say, none of this is a surprise to me.
