Harrowing - Invested 10+ hours of interviews with several of their interview panels over the past 5 months.
Been through several interviews from both sides of the table over the past 20 years of my career. Never have I seen any corporate so indecisive on the candidate's abilities after so many hours of being with the candidate.

Courteous interviewers.
Takes a really long time, and there's a huge gap between rounds with no communication from the team on next steps. Emails go unanswered.
Lots of overlapping questions / unnecessary rounds - had 7 overall.
