Software Engineer Interview Experience - West Lafayette, Indiana
Process
I interviewed with Yelp last month. Initially, there was a coding challenge where they asked some basic CS-related questions and one coding question, which was easy. I got a chance to go to the next round, which was a one-on-one Skype interview. The interview went pretty well, and the interviewer asked about points from my resume and one final coding question, which was also easy.
I am currently in the process of doing interviews. I will update this once I'm done with them.

Yelp Work Experiences
- 4.0Amazing culture and work-life balanceSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeJanuary 13, 2016Pros: The culture is really great, with incredible people everywhere. Most people leave by 6, with no expectation to work long hours for no reason. Work-life balance is emphasized.Cons: No particularly cutting-edge engineering is happening. Big portions of the site and technology are fairly behind the times, so a lot of the work is just trying to bring things up to a modern standard, not push any boundaries.
