Pros
-Amazing culture. Culture doesn't just mean having a game room with ping pong and Wii, or scattered living room spaces with modern couches, and snazzy movable stand-up desks. That's just the physical office. CULTURE is about people.
Not just the people who work beside you in your department, or the people who report to you, or the peopl you report to; it's the people from other departments who answer questions and provide input you need to get projects done, and collaborate with you to tackle challenging problems. It's the smiling and friendly faces you see as fellow employees fill their coffee cups, grab lunch outside on the patio, even if they're stressed and have only had a chance to eat at their desk all week. Happy people. You cannot put a price tag on happiness and it's contagious. Love coming to work every day!Cons
-Exciting to contribute to a product that is better than rest of the competition but this also leads to a lot of stress / greater demands on employees to perform
Advice to Management
-Keep up the great work!
-Continue to motivate employees through recognition and appreciation on a regular basis.Carbon Black 2017-06-29 08:26 PDT

Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Carbon Black.
Interview
I applied online and a recruiter emailed me to set up a time for a phone interview. I responded with times I was available. The recruiter did not confirm a time, but instead called me a few times outside the window I gave.
Once we finally got in touch, the recruiter went bullet-by-bullet through my resume and made some condescending remarks. This interview style does not at all reflect how to attract tech talent.Interview Questions
