Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
OA using HackerRank - I didn't like it, as the time it took for me to upload, compile, and check code was not accounted for anywhere. 12 questions in one hour.
Questions
-
Coding: Delete all nodes in a singly linked list whose value matches a given input.
-
Some bug fix.
-
MCQs - mostly what fresh grad students can recall instantly. I tried to recall many things about grammar, etc., which I studied 14 years ago.

- 4.0Great place to work, but is going downhill as it grows due to increasing overhead for workSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeMountain View, California, United StatesSeptember 28, 2020Pros: The people are great. The engineers are talented and knowledgeable, as are the PMs.Cons: Management is not great. Not horrible, but not great. There's been a steadily increasing amount of overhead to get literally anything done, to the point where many people are wasting a ton of time just to do simple tasks. Opening new offices overseas has not made that any better, and in at least one Pure's acquisitions, there was an influx of toxic culture from the acquired company that has not been corrected or dissuaded.
