Avoid DDP. No life, low salary, toxic culture
Avoid DDP. No life, low salary, toxic culture
You work with smart people from top universities. Everyone is working very hard.
You work so hard but get nothing extra in return. The salary can barely cover the cost of living in the Silicon Valley area. No life at all. The environment is so toxic. If you want to come to DDP, talk to someone from the team to see if you will change your idea.

Two rounds of online interviews. The first round was mainly behavioral, and the second round was technical. Most questions were from the resume and projects you have worked on before. Cleared all rounds but got rejected due to headcount.
