Process
It was a 45-minute interview. It started with the interviewer asking me basic questions, then gave me one programming question. He came back after half an hour and asked for an explanation for my solution. My solution had a bug, but he was encouraging. The only thing was, I think the time duration for the interview was small.

Not the same great company to work anymore
Senior Software Engineer • Former Employee
July 19, 2018
Pros: Great culture (that used to be); and a good physical location.
Cons: OpenTable's values have diminished a lot recently. New leadership has no clue on what they are doing, how to improve business value and return on investment. They were building the apps and services with no proper outlook. No new project is attractive. They won't bother to keep the great talent, and employees lost credibility in the management. Benefits were getting worse year by year. Compensation structure and plans were not attractive or competitive anymore.
