The Process: The process consisted of a recruiter screen followed by 5 separate interview rounds. Despite progressing through the entire pipeline, the final rejection was based on feedback from the very first round, making the extensive multi-week time commitment feel highly inefficient. The Experience: The initial technical screening lacked professional courtesy, with the interviewer frequently cutting me off and appearing disengaged. Most concerning, however, was the cultural fit interview with the VP. The VP explicitly stated that 25% of new hires are let go within the first 3 months. Hearing a C-level executive highlight such a high turnover rate as a point of pride suggests a volatile work environment. Additionally, executive leadership heavily emphasized a hierarchy based on "employee number" onboarding sequence, which signaled a rigid, exclusionary senior management culture.

First was screening call. Talke about experiences. Also asked some tricky queston for understand am I enough to technical interview or not. Second one was technical System design interview. They asked to me design their system. That was not fair IMO, They are working on the mature design long time for to make it working. And they expect me same or almost same design in 1 hour.
