-- Great work/life balance.
-- Intern mentor pairing program was quite effective. My mentor was the product owner of my intern project and assisted me throughout the whole summer (the best resource who was always there for me).
-- Countless intern events for our engineering intern class, such as Code Day (prizes included the newly released Nintendo Switch!) and Overnight Puzzle Challenge.
-- Competitive pay.
-- The company's openness and transparency was so refreshing (not as bureaucratic as other big tech companies).
-- THE FOOD! Massive pantry, daily soup, and weekly ice cream (every Friday).
Legacy code can be annoying; it takes a while to get used to the company's codebase.
The UI/UX of the terminal wasn't optimal, but it's been the same for years, so revamping it in its entirety is a bit unrealistic.
It doesn't provide a housing stipend for NYC residents (I no longer live with my parents in Brooklyn and had a special case which was unfortunately rejected), though they provide a housing stipend and relocation fee for all out-of-state interns.
A+
Round 1. Two questions: * One array and hashing * One sliding window They ask why you want to work at the company. They also ask about your recent project and what problem you had while making that project.
I applied online. First round was given a leetcode hard (only 1 question), similar to the N-Queens problem. Study backtracking, BFS, DFS, and matrix type problems. Some standard behavioral questions. Interview was 45 mins long.
I had an on-campus coffee chat, which was also a behavioral and "walk me through your resume" type of interview. I received a technical interview offer two weeks after the coffee chat.
