Process
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks.
- OA with two questions: the first was LeetCode easy, and the second was a simple pathfinding one. It was lengthy, but nothing conceptually difficult, I'd say LeetCode medium.
- First interview: another grid traversal.
- Second interview: a graph reduction problem.
- Third interview: another graph traversal problem.
I failed the final technical interview.
Questions
What is the shortest path from point (0, 0) to point (x, y) in an m x n grid where '#' indicated obstacles in the way?

Pros: Smart, but humble nerds (including both founders), strong corporate culture, excellent compensation and benefits.
Cons: Office politics became a thing as the company grew, used by the proliferating middle management aspiring to higher ranks. Corporate culture started deteriorating. It became harder to get a feeling of belonging within a company of 1600+ employees.
