I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at athenahealth (Watertown, MA) in Jul 2017
Interview
The whole interview process was excellent. I had an initial phone screen with HR. That turned into an offline code challenge. They gave me a week to work on it. It was pretty difficult, and took me a few hours. I passed, so they scheduled me for a final round of four on-site interviews (two technical interviews and two cultural).
Before I came on-site, they invited me to a candidate event at Brooklyn Boulders to meet some of the team and get a better sense of the culture. It was really fun, even though I don't like rock climbing. Everyone was very nice, and not intimidating at all.
On-sites are inherently stressful, especially with technical components involved, but as they go, this one wasn't bad. I had good conversations during the cultural fit interviews, and the technical ones were very collaborative. There was plenty of time to work through the problems, so I never felt rushed.
I would've happily worked at athenahealth if I hadn't gotten another offer from a smaller place.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One question involved repeatedly taking sums of submatrices within a parent matrix. There was an obvious caching optimization, and the question was straightforward. The interviewer was helpful and fun to work with.

To put it in one sentence, Athenahealth’s interview process is significantly flawed and out of touch. Expect 4.5-6 HOURS of rigorous coding round interviews where you must complete fully optimized working solutions.There’s no care for how, or why you solved the problem. Just get every test case passing, and you’ve got a job. It’s clear this company is more keen on hiring a leetcoder, rather than trying to identify real talent. Other than the HM interview, no other opportunities are given to meet your potential coworkers. Expect to hop on a call with a stone wall of an interviewer, and have no intro’s or icebreaker. This was probably the biggest red flag of all.
