Thanks for sharing your feedback. We make every effort to ensure our interview process is thoughtful, which is why our Hiring Managers (and in this case, one of the co-founders) conducted the very first interview and not someone from the People team. Discussing salary expectations is a part of the standard first conversation as we want to be transparent from the start in case there isn't alignment. I appreciate the time you took to interview with us and wish you the best in your job search.
