i get the negative reviews now. i read the reviews before intervieweing , but the company seemed nice and the opprotunity looked awesome, so i decided to come with an open mind.
i was wrong. get ready for a negative experience even if you come with a positive attitude. they actually made me feel bad about myself. i tend to suspect this is one of the companies full of bravado and exclusion.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cyera
Interview
After HR phone call i met with tow programmers. Started by explaining about the team and afterwards i talked about myself.
Then they gave me an excercise. Afterwards i got 10 min for asking questions.

Interview
Initial call with HR
First interview was a classic System Design interview with two parts - Explain regarding a project you developed + Some question regarding tracking files in S3.
Second interview was coding - Write an algorithm to allocate compute resources between different customers.
I did find the coding question to be very obscure which I didn't like at all.
The interviewers were both kind and informative.
Ultimately I got a call from the recruiter saying I didn't pass.
