I agree. I interviewed with Pivotal, and it was fairly distracting for me to be asked to work on a problem where the interviewer clearly knew the solution, and did all the typing. It wasn't fun.



I've done interviews and I've been guilty of "bulldozing" and I feel bad about it.

It's one of the reasons we try to do two interviews and ideally, remember to tell the interviewee to ask questions.
