The hiring and the interview process was quite smooth. The whole interview process was covered within 2days with proper communication. Questions asked were good. Difficult level was okay. Not that difficult. If you are good in basics then it won't be at all difficult. Worst part, after interviewing and offer rollout call discussion, they inform that they don't have budget to provide even a standard hike. Before applying to this company make sure to double check with HR what your current salary is and what is expected and whether if that's within their budget, because I was told clearly in the beginning that my expected is within their budget but later somehow that was out of their budget and this will only break your expectations and waste your time. They will interview you and then will slap you with rubbish excuse of budget constraints. They don't even have this audacity to inform the candidate. You have to be shameless enough to call them constantly to get this revert that they don't have a budget. Having such negative experience from such established company made me realise not all companies which look big are good. This company expects people to work on low wages and try to break your confidence by quoting people who are underpaid.

The only good thing was it started on time. I only had one round. The bad thing was professionalism and their approach to the entire interview. They asked textbook questions which are useful only in a college exam but rarely beyond that. As for coding questions, they were standard questions picked from Geek4Geeks that one could Google in 5 seconds (and it's actually easy in virtual interviews, but anyways that's just my ethics and expectations from a reputed company talking). Their expectation was to know the solution beforehand. There were apparently negative marks for finding a solution of the same time complexity if it was not what they knew and they were just looking for the only solution they already knew, to the extent that hints given talked of the number of lines of solution. I understand why someone wants a solution of a particular time complexity, but i felt let down by the interviewers a lot and did not feel that it's a place I want to work with. For more context, I was interviewed by someone who was younger than me, from a lesser reputed college, who passed out with a lesser CGPA. I feel that if the interviewer was more mature, they would value problem solving skills more from an experienced person rather than memorized questions one expects when one interviews straight out of college. It would be good if the company focusses on hiring people for their skills and not for what they studied in college years ago. I am not sure if this is how everyone in the company approaches problem solving and evaluation. Needless to say, professionalism continued after the interview and nobody bothered to even let me know of an accept/reject or give any feedback on what areas I need to improve on.
