It was a long interview process with no clear timeline or overview. They had candidates do a lot of work, wasting their time. The people interviewing weren't the brightest. You should consider if your time is worth it.

The recruiter screen call was not a great experience. I decided not to move forward with the application after this call, even though they offered me a follow-up call with a sales leader. There was explicit bias during the conversation, not even unconscious. The recruiter mentioned that they typically don't hire people from my current company because it's not known for a high-performing sales culture (even though I'm a high performer). This left a bad impression, and after initially feeling positive about the company and the call, I didn't want to continue.

Had 3 interviews with managers. They were interesting talks with questions. It was a good experience overall, and I learned some things about the company and how they work. They give you a lot of stuff to learn about the role and the company's goals.
