Process

They are really fast. After application, within 3 days, I received an email to schedule a technical phone interview lasting 45-60 minutes.

It involved a deep dive into my background and one technical question.

This was my first technical interview, and I was not prepared for it. However, the question now looks very simple.

Veeva Systems Work Experiences

Lots of work for little reward

Associate Software Engineer • Current Employee

Pleasanton, California, United States

Pros: - Free lunch - Work from anywhere (within 2 timezones) - Flexible with when you work - Few meetings

Cons: Expectations are confusing, and tasks can be thrown at you at times that require you to work later than expected. Hours are flexible, but it always seems like there is more to do than can get done. Build times are really slow; sometimes you end up waiting for long periods of time.
