SSLA is great in a lot of ways.

Interviewing - Depends on the team and department but it's pretty basic. No one tried to trip me up or undermine my answers during the interview process.

Salary - On the lower end compared to other agencies, and there isn't a lot (or any) negotiating at your level.

Culture - The LA office can be a bit clicky but that applies to most agencies. It's a laid back environment where everyone does their work and leaves at a reasonable hour (compared to industry standards). I haven't experienced any backstabbing or malicious behavior. The agency tries to do cool, fun things but the truth is, SSLA isn't a fun and cool place to work, but it's stable and no fuss.

Work - With Toyota's move to TX, SSLA is bringing on some new and exciting clients. The work for Toyota is stale but that's bc the clients don't take a lot of risk and don't want to ruffle any c-suite feathers.

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.
