Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
A recruiter reached out to me through HackerRank and sent a link for an online assignment. It had about 10 questions and was 1 hour long. Nothing crazy, but it required some attention. There were 2 very simple coding questions.
The first onsite interview consisted of two one-hour whiteboard coding questions, one-on-one. In hindsight, the questions were pretty simple, but I didn't pass. The interviewers were very friendly and helpful.
The next step would be a 3.5-hour onsite interview.
Questions
Bitmap buddy problem, synchronization.

I'm excited to come to work each day knowing that we're building a product that's changing people's lives for the better.Cons: The company has gotten big enough that I no longer have an opportunity to meet all the new people.
- 1.0Highly political. Management can't be trustedSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeMountain View, California, United StatesJuly 11, 2021Pros: Good pay, potential for quick career growth if your main strength is duplicity.Cons: Management spends all its time competing for power. Employee careers, project planning, and company direction are nothing more than pawns. Promotions are random. You'll be swapped from project to project without time to complete any, and you'll be told exactly whatever your manager thinks will keep you working, no matter how true it is. Your manager will usually disregard your feedback. You will never get a straight answer, and you can't believe anything you hear from anyone.
