Software Engineering Interview Experience - Gurgaon, India
Process
It was a good experience, although I was not able to get an offer. There were different rounds, including a group fly round and a face-to-face round.
It was my first interview, so I was a bit nervous. I would suggest practicing from LeetCode and GeeksforGeeks.
Questions
The question asked during the face-to-face round was: "Find the probability that the knight will stay on the chessboard after n jumps."

- 5.0Great Culture, Variable TeamsSoftware Engineering • Former EmployeeRedmond, Washington, United StatesJune 15, 2015Pros: Good corporate culture. Good compensation. Good perks. A 9-5 job. It might not be as fancy as other tech companies right now, but there are no crazy hours or expectation to stay long hours. The culture is relatively open as well.Cons: Typical big company problems. Difficult transparency to higher levels. Some decisions don't make sense to lower-level employees. Experience can vary extremely between teams – hugely! I cannot emphasize this enough. One team may have a very strict, no-nonsense culture; another might be completely different.
