Intern Reviews
- “Arista is an extremely good place to work, and the company's culture is clearly visible both from the people and the day-to-day work. Colleagues are extremely open and ready to help. Very good work-life balance as you are expected to work 40 hours, but the timings are very flexible. There is no compulsion to come to the office every day”
- “There was a learning curve, so I dedicated more hours to my work initially, but I felt Arista has a very good work-life balance.”
- “Everyone is so kind about how much work I am taking on. I have had an amazing experience working with such an uplifting community at Arista Networks.”
- “I worked a usual work week of 40 hours. The hours were flexible as long as I completed my tasks. While the internship was in-person, there wasn't a requirement to always be in the office. WFH was allowed as long as tasks were completed. We also had intern events like hiking, escape room, mini golf, amusement parks, etc. Work/life balance is good.”

I met the recruiters through the college career fair. … I filled out the application and was invited to interview. … We worked through some DSA problems, and I received the offer the next day. I was able to choose how many weeks I would like to work, which was nice.”
- “I had one interactive coding session, and that is it.”
