Phone screen trying to pump you up. Low base salary for the SF bay area — basically impossible to own a home there with that $. Forget about raising a family. Miscommunication on the process. Was told that the next interview was a behavioral interview from the hiring manager. Turned out to be a case study from a peer. Case study — they were late to the interview. Was asked to rebuild an MVP for a product they had already built. So they already have a deep home field advantage. Poor work life balance — Was told they work 50 to 55 hours a week. Unlimited PTO, but unspoken pressure not to take it. Heard that the culture was HIGHLY AMBITIOUS and that management had basically unrealistic expectations. Impression that employees burn out, so only the desperate or drones are left.
