Applied through the career site. Was reached out by a recruiter to fill out a questionnaire. Phone screen with recruiter 3 separate times, interviews with hiring manager and 4 separate team members, final KO deck assignment, and then a panel interview presenting the KO deck. Up until the final step, the conversations weer pleasant. Though this whole process was painfully and dreadfully long, 1.5 months to be exact. The communication the whole way was that the final step would be more an assessment on how you would respond to random questions, situational and behavioral. However this was not the case. It was essentially an extremely uncomfortable hazing session for the interviewers to act as "bad clients" berating you for 45 minutes. Questions asked were very technical and data driven. All of which as a candidate you would not have the answers for. With little to no guidance and direction, it would be impossible to do well in the final step.

Talent acquisition was very nice and honest. Gave “inside scoop” even more than a typical TA/recruiter. Benefits are good — High parental leave (6 months?!) and 401k matching. But they don't make up for a low salary and being hybrid (factoring commute costs into total comp). Later interviews sucked. People were harsh and cold — unfairly critical just to look good in front of their boss. Clearly they have not calibrated. Finally, they threw too many curveballs — (1) their homework was OVERLY VAGUE, even more than a typical PM homework (2) less than 24 hours to complete (3) DIDN’T SHOW UP to the prep call. If an interview is a signal to how real work is here, then … People give you vague directions. People criticize you when you make assumptions to make it less vague. People get angry ***because you didn’t read their mind.*** Clearly they’d rather see you in stressful situations than at your best. Punishment over encouragement. A toxic work environment. Finally, a severe lack of diversity — everyone I interviewed with the same gender.
