These are good questions, I like how they are phrased so concretely instead just asking “do you have a lot of tech debt?” They’re interesting for getting to know the team and getting a piece of insight you usually wouldn’t have until a few weeks into the job. But I would be careful how you interpret these. In fact I would almost factor in these answers in the opposite way of what I think you intended. The company that admits to the worst technical issues is at least honest and self reflective. The company that doesn’t admit to any serious issues might be just as bad or worse, but their strategy is to tell employees to lie about it rather than be open to addressing it.
