I worked there a few years ago. I applied for a Haskell role there. During my interview I was told it was a Scala role.
I became the only Scala dev in a team who wanted to rewrite the codebase in Typescript.
I ran out of work to do there at times - while the team was still growing. The same manager who couldn't find work for me, after announcing that the team would be splitting because it got too big, was dumbfounded when I suggested we stop hiring more people.
I had a few colleagues who had worked there longer than me, but didn't have any code in prod.
I feel stupid even writing this, but it honestly seemed that having more developers was more important than the product itself.
