Senior Software Developer Interview Experience - New Delhi
Process
Had a get-to-know call with HR, one online coding round on Hackerrank, a round with the Engineering Manager for a culture fit check, and then an hour-and-a-half-long tech interview.
Questions
Just basic stuff based on the previous round (HackerRank) and how the code could have been improved.
Answered most of the questions asked, and the interview went fairly well.
Got ghosted by HR after that, no feedback, no explanations, although I did send a couple of emails to look for an update. Horrible experience; at the very least, the candidate deserves to know what went wrong.
The questions mainly involved what design patterns could be applied to a HackerRank problem and what data structure or generic solution would be used if this was a real-life problem.

Adyen Work Experiences
- 4.0A great place to work, but there are signs of it becoming just another greedy, low-morale, poor-culture bankSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeAmsterdam, NetherlandsNovember 13, 2025Pros: Initially, an innovative, fast-paced company driven by incredible people. Generally, a great atmosphere to work in. Offers many opportunities to learn and grow.Cons: In the last year or two, the company started really shifting the focus away from the people, the culture, and the greater impact, to pure financial results and investor satisfaction. The little perks that were available for employees, such as nice breakfast snacks, free soda fridges, and in some cases, simple respect, are vanishing. The high leadership became arrogant. A few times, they publicly implied that the employees are somehow "free riding" and that we should be very grateful to them for the amazing conditions they are giving us. In some teams, we're working severely understaffed, but the expectation is to deliver massive results. This has been emphasized in almost every internal event.
- 4.0Good Work Environment OverallSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeAmsterdam, North Holland, NetherlandsNovember 7, 2025Pros: Good environment to work for everyone.Cons: Nothing bad here at work.
- 1.0Not as good as it soundsEngineer • Former EmployeeAmsterdam, NetherlandsOctober 31, 2025Pros: Things could possibly change with new management with an international background.Cons: Awful place to work at. The tech stack is a joke. But worst of all, racism is the norm. You're basically treated like a slave if you're not Dutch or European. Run while you can.
