Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
The recruiting team acted very fast, as I had other offers. I was called on-site after just one phone screen, which was pretty easy. They asked me a set of technical questions and asked me to explain an algorithm to solve an easy to moderately difficult problem. There was no live coding or dictating a program on the phone.
My onsite interview included programming questions of moderate difficulty. The interviewers were very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. They asked me how I got interested in the company and whether I am genuinely interested in the product. They also asked questions to test for cultural fit.

Tableau Work Experiences
- 4.0Definitely no longer a startupSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSeattle, Washington, United StatesAugust 26, 2014Pros: Work-life balance is fantastic and hours are flexible. Benefits are good, but not outstanding. The product itself is peerless and the development team is full of incredibly smart, helpful people who are a pleasure to work with.Cons: The company is going through all sorts of growing pains. The intimate startup feel is gone, and upper management doesn't seem to care about individual employees. Internal promotions are paid way less than outside hires. 401(k) matching is kind of pathetic.
