I'll share the interview experience a little later...but all in all it was super smooth and their process really tests out all the facets of an SWE job. I was lucky enough that I got the written offer just before they announced a hiring freeze...phew!
Verdict: Accepted this offer since it was highest of the ones that I got and WFH is a really sweet benefit.
