I had a team-manager kickoff and then moved into a whole-team round with several people interviewing me back-to-back. The scheduling details suggested that each team member would take about 30 minutes, but in practice each conversation lasted closer to an hour. That changed the pacing of the day.
The technical conversations focused mainly on coding. Because they ran long, I had fewer natural breaks than expected. The interviewers were technical and engaged, but the biggest surprise was the gap between what had been communicated and what actually happened on the calls.
I didn't get an offer. The content itself didn't feel unfair, but the process was more logistically demanding than promised. What stayed with me was how quickly you have to stay sharp when several long technical interviews happen in sequence.
Location: Seattle, WA. Overall feedback: Negative. Offer status: No offer.
