Process
Applied through a website. I got a quick response. The interview was scheduled at my convenience.
The first round was a technical round. The questions were technical and very specific to languages and technologies. There were no logical, analytical, or algorithmic/data structure-related questions.

Good People, Toxic Culture
Software Developer • Former Employee
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
December 11, 2019
Pros: Location and free food, maybe. And very, very few genuinely good people.
Cons: Toxicity everywhere. The passion you bring with you dies quicker than your hope of ever working on what you love. Freshers are discouraged from jumping into the domains of their passion and are told to just fill up any vacancies present. And the most toxic HR you will ever see; they are so self-pompous and ignorant. HR was the worst part of this company.
