Interviewed Jan 2009 in Los Angeles, CA (took 3+ months)
Process was incredibly long and disorganized.
A lot of interviews. Then more interviews. They hire at a snail's pace in a process that can literally take 3-5 months, but then once you're hired there's a unreasonable amount of pressure for you to start the next day and move cities to their flagship office.
Also there were some genuinely dishonest and sketchy parts of the process. The whole time I interviewed we were talking about one job title, then lo and behold when I got the offer letter there was a lesser title on the offer letter - and that was the first time they mentioned it. Also, it wasn't a typo. I just had to call up to learn they had decided to offer me a lesser job title. That was their way of alerting me. Very ethical.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Although they are an ethics company, don't be fooled - they will fight tooth and nail to pull down your salary even by a few thousand dollars. They are very short-sighted about this. Be very clear about your desired salary (not just your current salary which they will use against you).
Salary negotiation was painful. The initial offer was shocking. They kept asking me if I'd decided yet - when they still hadn't come back to me with a higher 2nd offer.
Also, they may make promises about salary increases once you're in the organization - don't believe this. Inside the organization there is no clear process for merit increases.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Background Check.

Interviewed May 2008 in Los Angeles, CA (took 2 days)
Interview process was very organized. I worked with a recruiter who gave me all the tips needed. The interview was technical but realistic. Had to analyze a snippet of QTP code. The people were diverse and the teams seemed siloed.
