My impression of the company plummeted on the day of my onsite interviews.

The interview questions were extremely simple, far too basic. The interviewers were young individuals who had recently joined the company after completing their bachelor's degrees. They lacked experience and didn't even grasp some of the fundamentals.

I am a mid-level professional with over six years of experience following my PhD. My expertise lies in parallel and high-performance computing.

One interviewer was particularly incompetent. After I presented an obvious solution to a multithreading and concurrency question, it was evident that the interviewer had absolutely no understanding of the topic and was speaking without knowledge. He did not accept my initial simple solution because he didn't comprehend it. He also rejected the next couple of solutions I implemented using different threading models, as he was unfamiliar with those as well. Upon asking what he was looking for, I implemented a solution he desired, though I know from experience that its practical performance would be terrible, and I argued this point. (I have been working with multithreading and concurrency for over eleven years.) However, he didn't understand those concepts either. Subsequently, he rejected me due to his own incompetence.

Since it appears they hire anyone from a good school, regardless of their actual merit, and then have them interview candidates for senior positions, my impression of the company was terrible. I would not want to work there, even if they offered me an attractive position.
