Process
The interviewers were very clear and reasonable.
Problems were not just generic algorithms that required either prior exposure or a great logical leap.
Design interviews were also reasonable.
I genuinely enjoyed talking to the interviewers.
Questions

Work and learn with top talent
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Mountain View, California, United States
August 30, 2021
Pros: Much higher talent density than other companies I've worked at.
Plenty of interesting work and growth opportunities.
It's a rare opportunity to work on such an interesting intersection of hardware and software.
We have a competitive advantage given the strategic decisions we've made about our target market.
Cons: Working alongside so many talented people means becoming a TL or TLM is much harder than at larger companies like Google.
Although they are working on this, the company isn't quite good enough yet at recognizing the hard work of employees beyond the rare ones that get TL/TLM roles.
