Textio Senior Data Platform Software Engineer interview questions

I did a brief call with one of their recruiters. The call went fine, but it didn't have a great tone to it; their company branding places a large emphasis on diversity, but the interview process wasn't very inclusive. If you go beyond the initial call in the interview process, you'll do one 2-3 hour take-home project, a phone call about that take-home project, and if you pass those, a ~day-long take-home project, plus a full-day onsite. That's a lot of interviewing for any kind of IC role and expects a lot of upfront work from candidates before even introducing them to someone outside of recruiting. Also: I had a weird moment with the recruiter around salary expectations. It's normal for companies to not explain their salary bands, but it's *highly* unusual for a company to have that policy and state it so abruptly while simultaneously emphasizing how much their company values diversity and inclusion. Even just a conversation around "Do you pay closer to $100k or $200k?" was out of bounds. The call raised enough red flags that I would not work there, and several friends who also interviewed there echoed my experience.
