Process
It started with a phone screen. You can check other Glassdoor reviews for tips here.
The onsite interview involved two approximately one-hour interviews and an individual coding portion with three challenge problems. This was the only portion of the day where you actually wrote code.
There was also a break for lunch in between all this. Asana has great food.
Both my interviewers were very nice and enjoyable to work with. Overall, it was a great interview experience.
Asana's culture seems very unique and special.

Pros: I think Asana was a great place to start your career.
Lot of smart people and opportunities to grow as a new grad.
There is a big emphasis on learning, and many people are willing to help you.
Cons: As I progressed, I felt there weren't many interesting opportunities or ways to grow. It felt like people were fighting for big projects to be able to put them on promo packets.

Amazing People, Growing Company

Pros: The best thing about Asana for me is the people. Not only is everyone world-class at their craft, but they are also exceptionally kind and mindful. Our culture is truly unique. Leadership is extremely transparent, and information is shared freely—for example, we receive monthly updates about the state of our business and finances. It's super gratifying to build a tool that helps so many teams around the world. Our business is very healthy, and we're growing quickly. And we have amazing perks!
Cons: Sometimes it's hard to figure out how responsibilities are shared and distributed. While we care about diversity a lot, at the moment we hardly have any employees over the age of 35, let alone 40.
Also, I'm ruined for life. I'm not sure if I'll ever enjoy work as much anywhere else.
