Software Engineering Interview Experience - Natick, Massachusetts
February 1, 2016
Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
The interview process included:
- One behavioral interview
- One technical interview
- One interview with the hiring manager
This was a significant waste of time. They went through the entire process only to post about the position status on their website. I would not apply here again. The pay was also lower than expected.

Nice product, crazy process
Software Engineering • Former Employee
Natick, Massachusetts, United States
April 3, 2013
Pros: 1. The company makes a well-known, widely used product.
2. The offices in Natick are really nice, with a nice cafeteria and gym on-site.
3. Good benefits, such as a 6/6 401k match.
Cons: 1. Ridiculous management: The process is so loaded down and wastes obscene numbers of engineer-hours in forms. There are two entirely separate tracking systems that have to be filed for every new feature.
2. Silly performance review process that uses bad tools. It takes forever to fill out the badly designed self-review form, and no one looks at it anyway.
3. Salaries 20-30 percent lower than industry average.
