Mentally prepare to see your hard work be destroyed by utterly incompetent local management, over and over again.
HQ leadership and mindset are very good, but often out of touch with what really goes on in this department.
Forget about career progression here. Local management's goal is to do as little as possible while getting away with it. If you oppose this mindset, you will be targeted and gaslighted. They will go far and wide to protect their little circle.
For these reasons, this was by far the most toxic and depressing place I have personally ever worked, with reasonably crazy high turn-overs.
You have been warned. That being said, my advice to you is: give it a shot and see how it goes, but always keep an open mind and be ready to jump ship.
Stop playing games or leave the chair to someone that knows what he's doing and is willing to commit to the project and his team.
Stop antagonizing HQ and talking behind their back, dumping on them the responsibility for your own failures.
Stop the lies, manipulations, and gatekeeping. Such behavior is not doing you any good; it promotes toxicity and ultimately will lead to your own downfall.
Best of luck and farewell.

They had me complete a one-hour take-home assignment before speaking with me personally. When they did reach out, they began to schedule my interview. However, after I asked some questions about the role, I was ghosted. It was a waste of my time.
Good. I didn't receive the offer. My application only got to the first round. I had to wait a long time for a reply, and after that, I didn't get positive reviews. I'm still waiting for a reply as they haven't responded yet.
