Hiring manager no showed the first interview. Felt like my time was not respected as no update was given until I personally reached out. While the interview team seemed pleasant enough, red flags were very apparent. A high level employee is given IC responsibilities, and it's apparent that the team is spread thin and roles are unclear for a large company. Largely feels disorganized. Not worth the 3 days in person.

Interview
I had a disappointing experience with the Dot Dash team. They conducted multiple interview rounds, assigned a task, and then completely ghosted me—without any update on whether I was selected or rejected. It was unprofessional and frustrating.
