Process
There was one online coding challenge. If you can pass it, you will have a phone interview. If you pass the phone interview, they will invite you to New York for an onsite interview. The onsite interview includes breakfast, two technical interview rounds, and lunch. If you do not pass the first two rounds, they will not continue with the afternoon interviews. If you pass the first two rounds, you will have a chance to talk to the managers.
Questions

- 4.0Cool Work, No Free LunchSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeNew York, NYMay 7, 2023Pros: I liked it. It was cool.Cons: No free lunch kinda sucks.
- 4.0Still interesting, despite the inevitable creeping disease of becoming a large companySoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesSeptember 25, 2018Pros: Modernizing of technology stack. There are some really great managers who do want you to succeed. Flexibility with choosing projects sometimes, flexible hours. Gym.Cons: As others have mentioned, bureaucracy and red tape, in addition to heavy dosing of politics. Blatant nepotism, especially within the network of former Goldman Sachs employees. Engineering middle management emphasizes and rewards the wrong set of behaviors. Most senior/high-level positions (and corresponding SVP titles) are given to new hires rather than loyal, long-time employees.
