Process
The interview was straightforward.
I was asked questions relative to the position, with a few character and behavioral questions mixed in.
I had to split my interviews into two sessions as one was with the domestic hiring manager and the other with the international.
Very smooth and streamlined.

Fifteen years and counting, and still loving it!

Pros: One of the best managed technology companies around. It's lucky to have a founder who has been able to scale up to lead a $50B company.
This allows the company to take bold risks, and many of them have paid off handsomely, including the push into high-performance computing, AI, and autonomous driving.
On top of working on some of the most game-changing technologies around, it is also a really well-run company with great leadership and work culture, and some really smart engineers.
Cons: The pace of work can be taxing for those not used to it, but it's similar to most successful Silicon Valley companies.

Great Tech, Great Work Environment

Pros: Great environment. Doesn't have the "analysis paralysis" disease that is so common. Decisions get made, and we move forward. Decisions get revisited when the situation changes.
Much of this is related to having a strong consumer focus. Business results require new products for Christmas and Back to School. Those products use the same building blocks as non-consumer products, so the whole company is on that cadence.
Cons: It's a big company that still acts like a startup in some ways. Documentation is spotty (and is frequently "here's what we did that's different from last time").
