I had a negative experience. I was contacted immediately after filling out the application by HR. I had a phone screen with HR followed by one with the hiring manager. At the end of the second phone interview I was told HR would be reaching out with next steps, but never heard anything despite attempts at follow-up.

Had a friend recommend me to the hiring manager. Had an informal phone conversation with her and then went into the office 2 weeks later to meet with 6 members of the team.
