Interviewed Apr 2012 (took 3 weeks)
During the process, I needed to talk about everything that was on my CV and everything from the background came up for questioning. There was some discussions about what needed to be done in order to qualify for the systems engineer positions. He talked about the company as a whole being one of the best working environments.

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Sunnyvale, CA (took a day)
Good fair practices, very comfortable environment -- even for an intervieweee. The questions covered a wide range of issues from systems designs to general thinking and debugging. The interviewers was a mix of engineers and managers -- but all of them knew what they were talking about! The work place is great, with a wonderful cafe with lots of selection of foods etc. The work positions and your responsibilities were very well-defined -- i think that is something unique since many places tell you "X" and you end up doing "Y". Overall, most employees were very happy and satisfied with their responsibilities.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 4+ weeks)
First had a phone interview with a manager and then proceeded to a on-site interview. The on-site interview consisted of 6 rounds. Interview questions were mostly technical and interviewers seemed pretty nice. However I had another pending offer and was told I would be notified within a week. After a week of no news, I sent an email to the recruiter and received no response. Then I tried calling her, but it just went to voicemail.
More than two months later, haven't heard a thing. I've accepted the competing offer and am so glad I did. I am very happy at my new company now.
Overall the interview experience was positive - I liked the culture, interviewers, and the company itself. It's the HR department that was very poor in their performance.

Interviewed Nov 2010 (took a day)
I was asked to submit an online test consisting of about a dozen short programming questions of advanced level. After they were submitted, i got a technical phone interview with the hiring manager. the questions were related to the problems i previously submitted. They asked why and how and explain this and that. The interviewer was not in great mood and i had to call them when they forgot to call me on scheduled time. I didnt hear any accept or reject from them later.
