I initiated the interview as I was encouraged by a former employee to apply. The HR recruiter was really pushy from the start and condescending. He kept telling me that I wasn't worth what I was looking for, but I gave the company the benefit of the doubt. The Marketing VP was great, very friendly, but I wish she had called me with the offer and not the HR person. He was again very rude and when I tried to negotiate, he said, forcibly and threatening, "I'll go back to her right now and tell her you're not interested". I believe this was absolutely due to the fact that I look young and I'm a female. There were a lot of red flags.
