It feels like there are way too many steps and way too many cooks in the kitchen.

I lost all interest in the position after the round with two engineers who were not interested in answering my questions about working there, the culture, etc. They seemed really miserable and scared.

Recruiters are like telemarketers; they are trained not to deviate from the script.

The coding and design tests are pretty basic and easy. However, I could feel the tension with the engineers who were interviewing me.

It was a hard pass for me. I don't want to go to work in a position with zero job security.

Simple DSA questions and design scenarios, like designing a voting tool.
