Can you tell me about the team I’ll be working most closely with?

From Monday to Friday, you’re going to spend more waking hours interacting with these people than you’ll spend with your friends, significant other, kids, dog… It pays to know what the team is like. How many people? How long have they been with the company? Gender mix? What does collaboration usually look like on the team? Do they spend time with each other outside of work? These are important data points on your job search.
