Recently HR reached out to me for an opportunity with Commvault. 2 hr debugging round. 6 hr coding round. (One day) I am serious, rechecked with him twice. 1-2 hr system design. Before investing time in an interview I want to know more about culture, pay and benefits. #tech #microsoft #nvidia #adobe #atlassian #salesforce #confluent #uber #apple #leetcode #l5 #swe
10 hours of technical rounds? They better be paying top of the market, else GTFO
Yeah!
I work at Commvault and yes, the interviews are pretty long. However, the "coding round" is not DSA or CP. It's live coding with a senior from Commvault as your "team lead", essentially to check your coding style, thinking style, design etc. The senior won't be on call the entire time. You'll notify them if you want to ask questions and they'll come online. You can use the internet during the test. It's essentially a "take home coding test" but with a deadline of 6-7 hours. If you like coding, you won't even notice the time fly by. You'll probably skip the HR rounds if your "team lead" thinks you don't need them. I joined as a fresher last year. The salary and stuff has increased since then, but I can give you info based on last year. CTC ~30 LPA ~15-18 LPA base, and usually around 12000-14000 USD stocks, vested over three years with refreshers every year. Got a raise of around 20% on my first appraisal cycle at the end of the year. Good work equipment (Dell workstation laptop, 2 external monitors, a docking station and some other standard peripherals) and they'll reimburse you for any ergonomic items you purchase for your work, along with your internet costs. Remote for now, but they're open to people working from office if they'd like. No hard deadline for return to office yet. (However, I think newer hires are asked to go directly to office) Bangalore is a newer office, with lots of hiring going on there.
Thank you so much. This is how communities get better. I have been reached out to principal/senior software engineer position. YOE:10 Tc:48 lpa.
Glad to help. The culture here is fantastic as well. All the best if you decide to go through with it!
It won't look good on your resume, don't do it. I am struggling to get calls to get out. Very high attrition and they are struggling to keep the people, even new ones. Zero innovation with only patching and support work for old legacy products. Frankly, the pay is also not that great. Why would everyone leave otherwise? Eng org is a toxic culture and has toxic upper mgmt, especially at IDC. The US office is good but IDC head openly said they're not a placement agency and they will never do internal transfer except for 1 year. It's a sinking ship and everyone is so desperate to jump. The only customers it has are old enterprises and govt agencies that got locked in. Many customers are finding ways to dump it. They had a lot of time to grow and acquire market but because of the rude and stupid engineering management, the product is going no where but south.
Good god. Which team are you on? I haven't faced any toxic culture yet. Quite the opposite. I don't know why you're struggling to get calls out. I'm getting unsolicited calls for interviews from pretty good companies. Even Commvault competitors keep calling with some pretty good offers.
Not here to argue and definitely not a brand ambassador, just want to share some facts. Be honest, are we suffering from high attrition or not? Why do you lie 50lpa is competitive for 10 yoe, if not third grade, everyone will laugh at you.
I guess it's appealing for service based WITCH ppl. The ones that have stuck around from the lot of influx is this category!!
