The interview process involved two initial screens with the hiring manager, followed by one onsite interview and a presentation. The scheduling throughout felt a bit disjointed between gaps in responses and confusion about an onsite or virtual "onsite" interview. Additionally, what I thought would be a call to arrange the onsite interview with a recruiter unexpectedly turned into an interview. After that conversation, I waited a week and eventually had to follow up myself to confirm the onsite scheduling. The onsite experience was mostly pleasant. The coordination team was welcoming and helpful. In my conversations, some interviewers felt rigid in their questioning, appearing to seek "right" answers over an understanding of how candidates approach problem-solving, strategy, or philosophy. Based on the team’s examples, I sensed some level of micromanagement from the CEO. In my most disappointing interaction, the interviewer frequently interrupted my answers to redirect to a different question or add multiple probing questions at once and rushed me along in my answers seeming to not care about any context. She mentioned wasting time interviewing unqualified candidates (not sure if she was talking about me at the moment, but it sure felt like it) and came off frustrated with the current state of the team and eager to just hear the "right" answers. This “firing squad” style of interviewing and her tone/attitude throughout the interview made me question whether I’d even want to work in that environment. She also spoke dismissively about the need to "get rid" of underperformers across the org, with little empathy or focus on development. Despite this, I gave the overall experience a Neutral rating, as most other team members were warm, engaged, and well-prepared.
