Overall horrible and exhausting. The interviewers lacked technical knowledge or properly expressed what they wanted. They also kept interrupting, and some of them came off as rude.

I have given many interviews before, including day-long coding challenges, but this was the worst. That's what differentiates a truly strong technical person.

They had no idea how to ask questions to a senior. When I mentioned my strong experiences, they had no follow-up questions. I was so surprised that they didn't bother asking about performance or project organization. They kept asking silly coding things that a simple Google search can tell you. Clearly, they are backdated on technologies.

They have a set structure for interviews and are not flexible or open enough to recognize talent. The UI team's questions were plain weird; they kept telling me, "Don't worry about this or that, but tell me this..." as if they had one set answer in mind.

The managerial round was also a waste of time; they make you go through that round even if the technical assessment wasn't good. The manager didn't have much idea about new technologies. When I mentioned some items, they kept just repeating, "This isn't new." So, it was laughable that any tech lead with some knowledge would be able to know what is new and what is not.

I was initially enticed to work here for the good compensation reviews, but if working here means micromanagement, politics, and no good coding experience, then thanks, but no thanks.

It seems most people just wrote the feedback because of the good compensation, and maybe they are in a better team, I'm not sure. My interviewers were somewhere from the US. Having worked in both countries, I wouldn't be surprised if the US part has a more toxic culture.

Oh, did I mention they asked me to create a big presentation CV and didn't even bother seeing it or asking anything on it?
