Interview process

The OA was fairly difficult. There were 4 total questions. You can choose the language to code in. All of which will be DSA problems. I got a perfect score on each question and still got rejected with zero feedback or response.

    Online assessment

    1. Q1. Given a string of space separated numbers, identify each number with consecutive duplicate digits. For each of those numbers, replace it with the sum of its digits.

Tips from the candidate

Practice HackerRank, the descriptions are long and detailed. LeetCode problems often are much shorter and simpler comparatively.

Company culture

I heard the work culture is awful. Certain types of employees receive preferential treatment, and it's become very stressful due to their PIP system.
