Site Reliability Engineer Interview Experience - Redwood City, California
January 1, 2018
Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
A brief call with the recruiter followed by a phone screen with the hiring manager, I was then invited for an on-site interview. The on-site interviews were terrible. Half the interviewers didn't show up; the ones that did show up had no interest in asking anything relevant. They kept asking me questions out of my skill set and, frankly, questions that were not aligned with the job description either.

Great place to work

Pros: A true FAANG feeling and great engineering culture. The company promises to keep the hybrid working approach, unlike most IT giants!
Cons: Though I would love to see all my teammates in person in the office, someday.
(Not something that the company has control of, obviously.)

Pros: Management is supportive and cares about personal goals and development. Smart teams look for ways to help each other out and learn. The right mix of time to get stuff done versus spending time in meetings. Great pay, benefits, and perks. The food, kitchens on every floor, and in-house cafe with barista are great. I am very happy with the company culture; you are able to be as engaged as you want to be outside of work responsibilities, and not feel pressured to if it's not your thing. I really couldn't be happier and enjoy coming into work every day. This is a company I feel like I can grow with.
Cons: 401k matching would be nice.
