HR contacted me the same day I submitted my CV. A phone interview with the hiring manager was scheduled within days. A 45-min initial phone interview. A few days later, HR scheduled a 2-hr session of one-on-one interviews with Sales department senior managers. The following week, HR asked me to deliver a CV presentation for a group interview with all mid-level and junior managers of the Sales Dept. Immediately followed by 30-min one-on-one interviews with each of the mid-level and junior managers. That was a 9am to 3pm in person interview! The process was ridiculously long. However, it afforded me a glimpse of the Sales team dynamic. While MathWorks is a highly regarded, culturally diverse company in Boston, its Sales division left A LOT to be desired. The Sales team comes across as a proud "Family & Friends" clique. There is an apparent disconnect between the diverse, inclusive, hands-on team work culture in the engineering and operations divisions vs the popularity contest and high school gossip going on in the Sales division. A complete turn-off!
