Which one has harder interviews? Out of hundreds of engineering friends that I have, around 100 made it to G/F, very few to Snap and none to Dropbox. If you interviewed at both companies, which one did you find harder?
This post is stupid. Most people don't even care about these companies. I wonder if ones who get through G or Meta people apply at these companies in the first place. Crap and dying products.
I tell you that senior technical staff at Snap is miles more inspiring than what you usually see at Google. If anything, I’d join them for the level of ownership and the quality of people. Google might still be a cash cow but today community-wise it’s nothing more than a gender studies college campus full of arrogant woke kids.
Maybe people have more ambitions than being a cog in a 100,000 person organization ;)
Snapchat was definitely not that hard. It was maybe some LC mediums and they asked me to draw web crawler for L4. Passed, ez pz. Google suuuuuucks :( got a LC hard or two for L4 and failed.
It's not harder but there are fewer roles available.
Why would you want to work at either? Anything interesting happening at either place?
They both pay a lot and very high quality engineers.
How much do they pay for L5 engineers?
Both suck ass bug time. Snap at least pays top notch but is a pip factory.
lmao dropbox pays way more than microsoft chump
I am not your Chump. And your not that intelligent by assuming that I’m advocating for Microsoft.(maybe you can do a LC on that) Microsoft pays peanuts and I get peanuts. Having said that, both snap and dropbox are unstable. One pips regularly, the other is a dying product. Do you prefer to get peanuts or be unemployed? Pick your poison “chump”.
Absolutely no indication on the balance sheet that Dropbox is unstable or dying. Dropbox’s revenue per employee is on par with Microsoft and profit per employee is better than the likes of snap, salesforce, oracle, etc
As someone who went through and got offers from G/FB/Dropbox I can definitely say that Dropbox interviews were most difficult to crack but yet most interesting and interactive because it checks for practical knowledge n smartness (You can see which one i accepted) Not sure about Snap
I am joining Dropbox in a months time and I can confirm. My interviews at Dropbox were harder but amazing than LC driven at G. Also G lowballs big time lol.
+1 on the f**ng crazy low ball offers from G And lot of dumb ppl still take that for the koolaid
At least for internship, which I got offers from both, Dropbox cares more about your depth of knowledge why Snap cares more about fast & working + maintainable code.
Shut the front door. Hundreds of friends
He’s a ‘softie. Plenty of time for making friends there. It even works greater wonders for bailing themselves out of a pinch when those seemingly yearly little cleanses of theirs happens. EDIT: quick reminder that Crapital One STILL sucks. kthxbye :)
Hundreds usually "acquaintances". Some cultures don't distinguish between friends and other close contacts.
