It took them a long time at each stage to book my interviews. Once they were booked, they seemed to go well, though I experienced last minute cancellations and had to roll with the punches anyway.
I received the offer, and then two days later was informed that I needed to make a decision by the next day because they wanted to hire someone else instead of me. I was literally on my way to the airport when the messaged this to me, at around 5pm. I tried to research the offer as much as I could at that time, asked if they could possibly offer a compensation bump given the situation to help me feel more comfortable under the circumstances and they immediately dropped me from the process.
I liked all the people I interviewed with and was seriously considering the offer, but now I feel disgusted by the company as a whole. I've never been treated so badly before by any company in my career.
Tldr; given offer, offer rescinded immediately on suspicious grounds.

I got contacted with a recruiter and had a call with him.
It was a pleasant conversation. The recruiter was friendly and very clear at communication. The information was transparent. I didn't continue to the next interview because I decided not to relocate.
