non-involved opinion here - it appears that a self-confident and clearly communicating C*O person is explaining exactly why the company is completely correct, while evidence of at least two actual non-company people show examples of this not being the case. Isn't it common for self-assured execs to explain away all the objections of outsiders, despite evidence directly presented? looks like it here $0.02
No specific criticism of the process was offered, so a general justification is warranted.
Personally I became interested in working for Teleport in large measure because the interview process tested my practical skills, rather than having me pull leetcode trivia out of my ass. I haven’t regretted my decision whatsoever, all of my engineering teammates here that I’ve worked directly with are very responsible and competent and the company appears to be growing mostly in the right directions.
