Flexible schedule, decent work environment, fairly decent pay.
Working here is like working for a government constantly feeding you BS propaganda. The higher-ups are never truthful with employees about anything, and your direct manager is also probably being lied to by everyone above them.
The morale in the office I worked in was abysmal, even when I first started back in early 2016, before everybody was being let go. The people who were here suffer from Stockholm Syndrome, as they're almost all over 40 and feel like they can't get work anywhere else.
The company doesn't reward its own employees, as I got a 1% raise after my first year. Turns out everyone on my team got a 1% raise at the same time because HPE couldn't afford to give out any more. When I was WFR'd in October of 2017, I figured I was being given an opportunity to move on. My next position had a 20% salary increase over what HPE had been paying me.
Also, the company's products tend to be incredibly broken, and the teams producing new releases are so beyond mismanaged it's a wonder they have anything that works on the market as of now. I would avoid this company at all costs, as it would be a complete shock if they were in business still within the next few years.
Stop lying to employees. Start being TRANSPARENT. Start making smart decisions instead of cutting your nose off despite your face. Stop allowing offshore development to ruin all your products. Stop selling broken products. Stop killing off product lines in favor of "new" untested BS.
Or maybe, just shut the company down and stop disappointing everyone.

I met a recruiter at a job fair at school and only had an onsite interview after that. The interview was 5 hours long, and each hour I met with a different engineer to talk about a different language.
It was online, and the interviewer asked a lot of OS, CN, DBMS, and OOPS concepts. He was chill, but they valued depth a lot and wanted answers in depth. It was held for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
