I don't think a lot of thought is put into it. It's inertia and 'what the the other successful big companies do'. There is also a subset that enjoys leetcode interviews and complain if you don't do it. Everyone d

The trick is to put it outside and you wont be answering questions, and you'll delete the posting when it's gone. Works well! It's free afterall, so part of the price is not you spending your time.

Yes yes, we get it, you don't like where you work or your coworkers. Maybe that is a signal in itself you should find a place where you do enjoy it? We spend so so so much of our time at work, we should strive to make it something we

"Because that's how things work??" is not a good reason when it's arbitrary policy, it's just a cause. "Would" implies why, or underlying reasons, saying we should judge them as valid or not, and he is

There are many developed European cities that are totally fine and do not have major cultural barriers. Some of them even speak english as a first language!

It's more a US culture thing IMO. Go travel to other cities in other developed nations and you see this kind of crap SIGNIFICANTLY LESS, if at all.
