It made me think that red flags from some other reviews are very real problems of the company. The first part of the interview was corporate fluff, with expectations of the candidate reciting their handbook and company values, and overall showing motivation. I had a feeling that the interview script was tailored for not-very-experienced developers, and very specific answers were expected instead of a normal dialogue between professionals. The second part of the interview was the interviewer criticizing company leadership for their unsustainable ways. That contrast was extremely weird.

There were some issues with communication between stages, the feedback I received for the code exercise was so short it seemed lazy
The company seems like it's doing really interesting work and going places, but the interview process has some improvements required.
