Big Company, Eroding Benefits
Big Company, Eroding Benefits
One of the larger players in town.
Note: some of the star ratings are based heavily on your particular manager. Three managers for the same group in 6 years, and there is a world of difference.
People move around to avoid getting put on PIPs. Over the past 6 years, the maximum 401K contribution match has been reduced, maximum vacation has been made more difficult to reach, patent compensation has been reduced, and medical insurance is not as attractive.
When VPs change Directors so often, the ICs lose confidence. (BTW, "director" is really just a manager.)

The process is different for everyone. Most people only have behavioral interviews, which are very easy to pass. However, my interviewer was rapid-firing extremely hard technical questions, so be prepared for either.

Very easy interview. It was 2 hours long and consisted mostly of CS trivia and system design, along with "what-if" scenarios. Behavioral questions were typical. I did hear that it depends on the hiring managers you get, so be prepared to do LeetCode

Recruiter screening, 30-minute call, then HackerRank OA, and then a final panel 45-minute interview that was completely behavioral. Lax questions for both screening and final. I think they were really looking for culture fit.
