Interviewed Dec 2009 in Hopkinton, MA (took 4+ weeks)
The interview went well. No generic interview questions. Easy going interview.
Interview was left open ended with no mention of when I would hear back.
They asked me my salary requirements, I asked what the position generally pays and I was looked at strangely.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took a day)
Besides one person of the interview team, it was great. There was a good two-way flow of information until the bad apple brought the communication to a halt. Unfortunately, this terse person was the hiring manager. Probably not good to work for anyhow.

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Bangalore (India) (took 5 months)
The manager from the US on the phone seemed like she was talking technologies that are in the 1990s. It also looked like the company is giving only piece work - just updates, no new products - to the Bangalore centre. The local manager was himself new and didn't know much of the organization. He was more bent on talking about his own previous accomplishments.
