Neutral ExperienceNo Offer
Process
I was invited for a programming exercise. Sadly, I did not pass the test since the time was very short. In 60 minutes, I had to solve multiple tasks.
An additional challenge was that each task built on the last one, which means if you had a problem at the beginning, it was hard to get further points.
Questions
The programming exercise was a typical algorithmic problem.

Palantir Work Experiences
4.0
High Pressure and Lots of Growth in First Year
Forward Deployed Software Engineer • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
February 13, 2022
Pros: - Most rapid growth in a role in 5 years of software experience.
- Most results and business-impacting work on my resume.
- High stakes and high pressure means I've been required to grow. I now have many stories about difficult situations and how I handled them well and poorly and learned from them. This is great for job interviews, builds the skills of a team lead and manager, and just makes me a more effective worker.
Cons: High-pressure, results-driven satisfying client demands means intermittent waves of pressure, leading to overtime. (Managers often encourage taking time off after working overtime.)
