Process
Applied online and received a coding challenge. It had three questions to complete in one hour, which was a bit of a hurry. I didn't do well, and I received a rejection that night. It's a good company if you want an interview quickly. It also feels like they are really hiring talented people.

Notice how the majority of reviews are not from engineers
Software Engineer • Former Employee
Redwood City, California, United States
February 24, 2016
Pros: Dedicated workforce
Good catered lunch
Over market pay
Cons: Sales-driven org, not engineering-driven.
Structure in the company seems artificial. There are around 100 employees, yet you have a myriad of directors. The company promotes people by inflating titles. You are promoted by how much of a 'yes' man you are, not the impact of your work.
CEO doesn't encourage free thinking. People are afraid to disagree with him. Culture is motivated by fear and pleasing the CEO, regardless of what's right for the organization.
Burns you out with late nights, weekends, and putting out fires.
