Process
I was invited for an onsite interview in MTV after passing an online test and phone interview.
These were typical Pure questions, which have been mentioned by others.
After the onsite, HR told me they did not want to give me an offer.
Questions
Design a data structure that can retrieve specific key/value pairs at constant time complexity. The interviewer for this question is an Indian guy. He is quite strict and gave some useless hints that made you feel more confused.

Pros: - Lots of growth, interesting technical problems.
- If you have a good idea, management and engineers are interested in making it happen.
- Really smart senior engineers.
- Lots of autonomy to do what's best for the product and company.
- Great work-life balance.
The market is booming, and we have the best product. We are constantly improving processes, and I can really see the change in the speed of deploying our software.

The Prague site is growing really fast, and there is sometimes a lack of leadership. If you are willing to step in, you will be rewarded, though.
