Negative Experience
Application
I applied through other source. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Twitter (San Francisco, CA) in June 2014.
Interview
No process but endless interviews. There was the distinct impression of complete disarray and an entire company afflicted by ADD. Constant changes in needs and position titles sufficiently put an end to any clarity at all. Re-orgs are fine, but it assumes there's an 'org' first which is not a strength of the current company or management as far as I could tell.

Exclusive: Twitter to Give All New Parents 20 Weeks of Paid Leave
May 1 will be a happy day for Twitter employees-at least those expecting a baby. The social media site is the latest tech player to offer so-called "gender-neutral" parental leave, guaranteeing any parent up to 20 weeks of fully paid time off. Other companies that have embraced such policies include Etsy, Facebook, and Change.org.
