I had one call with a hiring person, and another one with an engineering manager. I was not allowed to showcase any technical skills, but was rejected after the second call.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for putting so much effort into our process — a take-home challenge plus six interviews is a real commitment, and we don't take that lightly. We're glad the experience felt positive overall, and that the range of conversations gave you a genuine sense of who we are and what we value. We wish you all the best in your search, and hope our paths cross again in the future.
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.

Tell me about situation when you proposed something.
Screening, Interview with a member of the tech team, take home code exercise, follow up, and final stage.
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.
