I interviewed at Oracle OCI in Pleasanton. They scheduled my phone screen interview twice, and the interviewer did not show up on both occasions. I was then called for an onsite interview directly afterwards.

Out of all the onsite interviews, two interviewers (one of them was the hiring manager) were very rude and arrogant. There was one lunch interview with the hiring manager. The hiring manager finished lunch quickly without talking much and waited for me in the interview room for a whiteboard question. He gave me 15 minutes to solve it, and I obviously could not solve it in that time.

They called it a "lunch interview," but they tricked me into doing whiteboard coding in the last 15 minutes. This approach was very shady. I have interviewed at big companies before, and this is the first time I have done whiteboard coding during a "lunch interview."

One interviewer had no idea about how Docker works or why people use it. He kept asking me about Docker and exhausted more than half the time, before then asking a whiteboard coding question.

The cultural fit interviewer was decent and knew what he was asking.

The hiring manager told me that he would let me know personally within 2-3 days. I never received any email communication from the hiring manager after that.

I was told by many people that OCI is not doing well and the culture is toxic. I should have listened to those people instead of wasting my time interviewing for them. I do not recommend interviewing for OCI Pleasanton office at all.

3 rounds were moderate, 1 round was difficult, 1 round was a cultural fit interview.
