Senior Software Developer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
The interview process was properly defined by HR. It began with a prescreen via phone, which included a few technical questions, followed by a four-hour onsite process.
I was warned that if I didn't perform well in the first couple of hours, the interview would be aborted, and I would be told to avoid wasting everyone's time.
Their HR was quick to revert with the offer details. There wasn't much haggling, as they had already taken my compensation details and made an appropriate offer. They didn't allow room for negotiations, but I was okay with that.

Grubhub Work Experiences
- 4.0Working at GrubHubSenior Software Developer • Current EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesNovember 13, 2017Pros: An awesome place to work, especially for technology. You get a good ratio of benefits and work-related perks (Xbox is good at work), and also a nice work-life balance as far as dev-related work goes, with a culture of teams. The benefits are good too. As a senior dev, I get ample vacation time and credit to spend some cash on tech-related self-learning or dev conferences at company expense. You will definitely feel a strong sense of brand recognition once you walk in and start working, and see how everything is tailored towards building the product better, and how your work revolves around it.Cons: If inter-team communication picks up and people talk more to each other, then it would be an even more awesome place to work.
