Senior Software Developer (.NET Developer) Interview Experience
Process
Submitted an application directly through Geico. I received an email from a recruiter two months later.
They asked me simple questions about whether I was interviewing with other companies and where I was in the process with those other companies. They scheduled me for the first of two coding rounds for the interview process.
The first coding round was not a LeetCode problem I had seen, although the recruiter said both rounds would be LeetCode medium. I had to write the code using Codility. I was not able to get all test cases to be accurate on the coding problem.
Received a standard rejection email two days later.
Questions
They asked about prior experience, a general overview. The coding question was about counting how many families of x size you could put on a plane with x number of rows. There were certain conditions in place for how they had to be seated, and there were seats already reserved that you had to factor into the equation.

GEICO Work Experiences
- 5.0Good Work, Occasional LowsTester • Current EmployeeNashville, Tennessee, United StatesAugust 30, 2021Pros: Very good to work on there.Cons: Sometimes I feel not so good on this.
- 1.0Avoid; nothing good comes from herePrincipal Software Engineer • Current EmployeeSeptember 10, 2024Pros: I get to work remotely for now.Cons: Super old, broken, undocumented approach to tech. The CTO is extremely full of himself, and they can't even figure out Cloud, so they are migrating to on-prem. The process is so broken and the knowledge is so sparse that of course it's delayed 18+ months and again broken. Company is borderline racist as well, and I say that as a white person. They only hire people from India, actively filtering out others since they want H1-B to underpay and treat them badly. I feel bad for them. They get to overwork, underpay, and get an employee who has no option but to stay and take the abuse. Also, teams are given old projects, then fired after a while. Some teams are given advantages or don't have to follow a process your team does, so that manager's team looks good at your expense, since you have 1000 more broken controls and ecosystems to fight through. Bad mistake on my part coming here. Also, pay is very bad, again since they prefer to exploit immigrants than actually pay market rate.
- 2.0Micromanaging, not transferable workSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeChevy Chase, Maryland, United StatesNovember 9, 2022Pros: They used to be good for training if you wanted to change your career or go up.Cons: Micromanaging. Work is not very transferable, and depending on your team, work is not interesting. Don't really consider your growth.
