Interviewed Oct 2010 in Cambridge, MA (took a day)
I first had a phone screen. The hiring manager was very personable. Then I had a 5 hour on site interview. I am local so there was no travel issues.
Every person I spoke with in the interview was nice. The seemed like a close team.
Unfortunately they were looking for someone with kernel programming experience. I wish this was more upfront so I would not have wasted my time.

Interviewed Jul 2008 (took a day)
Interview process began with a quick phone chat where the interviewer and I went over my background. Subsequently, an onsite interview was scheduled quickly. I was very impressed with the accommodation and transportation arrangements - it was all paid for and there was no reimbursement hassles. I spoke with 5-6 people, each session lasting approximately 45 minutes. The interviewers were very knowledgeable and it was a very enjoyable process. In between a couple of interviews, I got a tour of the facilities. Overall, it seemed like a pretty good place to work.

Interviewed Apr 2010 (took 1 week)
First I spoke to the manager of Sales Engineering and then with the sales representative. I took 4 online tests to evaluate technical capability. After these interviews, they flew me to Boston where I met with Sales Engineering Manager and Director. I also met with the Director of Sales. I went through additional 2 tests and then presented some content to all of them.
Based on feedback, I was told that I did all the interviews well, but they felt that I would be a better fit for a more established company.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took 2 weeks)
Very traditional and straightforward. I had three rounds of phone interviews with sales, engineering, and sales again, then I flew to their office and interviewed in person with most of the same people as well as some C level people. Two days later, they gave me the offer. Over the next week, they moved very quickly with the paperwork. Very professional. When they want something, they're aggressive about it.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
They're pretty standard with their salary, I haven't had to do much negotiation, but that's primarily because their standard salary was higher than I was making at my previous employer. There might be some flexibility if I was coming from a job or competitive situation where I was making as much or more than the offer. But I wouldn't know.

Interviewed Apr 2009 in Framingham, MA (took a day)
General phone interview to cover background and skills with Engineering Manager. This was followed up with an on-site interview with members of the engineering team. 1:1 interviews were varied but it soon became clear that my skills were not quite a match for the position so interview became more of a personality test without any detailed tests/questions.
