I've mostly encountered easy and mediums during interviews

Same here. Only easy and mediums.

For my Amazon interview, I think I got 2 mediums and I definitely got 1 hard. I’d say mediums are the most common for companies like Amazon with some hards thrown in.

Solely depends on the role and the company. Also, top tier also includes good startups now which do ask hard questions. If you talk about FAANG, it is mostly medium+hard.

I’d recommend to focus on med level questions as they tend to at least be what FAANG companies give

Medium is what I'd focus on spending most of my time on. Hard questions do come, it depends on your interviewer. And more senior roles will definitely have LC hard

Facebook - 1 med, 1 hard. Amazon - 2 med, 2 hard. Google - 2 hard.

Company on track for 22 goals. Traditionally included 2% profit sharing at YE, this year however comes with a unique caveat.

The CEO added a qualifier, to be eligible for the payout one must agree to and sign a binding arbitration agreement. In the CEOs email to staff he indicates these agreements are standard in most companies and typically required for new hires.

I’m curious to get insight from others. Is this standard practice and generally required for new hires? Something feels off.

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.

Is it common to negotiate software engineer salary at smaller companies? I know it’s common at FAANG, but what about for companies with around 200 engineers? I have a counter offer from my current company and on-site interviews scheduled for end of July with google and Amazon, but I’d prefer to go with the smaller local company if I can negotiate the salary (from offer letter) up another 5% or so.
