Process
The end-to-end process took over 3 months, the longest time ever.
There was a lot of confusion around the process.
Interviewers seemed to be in too much of a hurry, and there was no diversity among them.
The recruiter would take a long time to answer simple questions.
Questions
Questions were focused on knowledge, like, "Do you know some specific technical method?" Not at all evaluating skills.

Better than many reviews make it sound like
Software Engineer • Current Employee
February 13, 2021
Pros: Great management, culture, and job stability. I haven’t been to the offices yet, so no comments on that. I suspect a lot of the negative reviews come from ex-Googlers, where the standards are extremely high. This might not be Google-level, but it’s a wonderful place to work.
Cons: Understaffed (but hiring).
Work-life balance.
Strategy a bit messy, as we take on new things frequently.

Worst company I've worked for
Software Engineer • Former Employee
South San Francisco, California, United States
August 11, 2022
Pros: Free food, some Google perks.
Cons: Terrible management, no vision, no plan. Lots of people left the company. The culture is bad; either you stab someone in the back, or you are the one being stabbed. Pay is below average. Don't expect it's Google; they are a totally different company. Also, they are trying to make up the reviews here. If you want the real rating, just select the lowest ratings and read them.

Stressful but good work-life balance
Software Engineer • Former Employee
Boulder, Colorado, United States
January 23, 2025
Pros: Good work-life balance
Positive employees
Cons: Lots of red tape.
Company not doing so well.
Startup mentality.
Lots of people stressed and working too many hours voluntarily.
Top-down decisions that don't make sense for the employees.
Lots of lay-offs; your title is not safe here.
