As a software engineer, you normally own what you do, end to end. Everyone is smart, and the culture is very positive. Work-life balance is generally up to you; nobody talks about hours, only performance. Strives for diversity and unbiased choices.
People consider complete ownership an issue. For example, you need to convince colleagues (who own their stuff) that what you do is the right thing, rather than just have someone at the top giving the last word. This is very uncommon.
I had an excellent interview experience for the Senior Software Engineer role at Google. The process was structured, fair, and focused on problem-solving, system design, and leadership. Interviewers were supportive and curious about my approach. Cle
A call with recruiter 1 entry DSA interview. 3 rounds DSA, 1 round system design, and 1 round Googliness/behaviour. It was quite long; I started from the morning to almost night.
Easy phone screen and then a difficult system design Q. Plus, normal interpersonal. Didn't make it past that round. People were very nice and the question was clear. Responses were prompt. Didn't have to wait a long time to hear back.
