Had one where they did a bunch of interviews with me in the same conference room. The job was in Foster City , so a pretty high CoL area. Whiteboarding, bit of code, etc. My manager-to-be then left me in the room for a phone call with HR about salary. The guy on the other end said that the salary was $50k, no negotiating. I turned then down, of course, but then was left alone in the conference room. I wandered about until security came and found me when I got stuck in an elevator with no RFID pass to let me out. The other bad one was a smaller firm that decided they were going to do a 'super hard' Google c. 2005 interview, in 2018. But they didn't know the answers to the questions either. Lots of 'how many piano tuners...' style questions they were looking for exact numbers with. Tried to have me debug code they had printed out. Turns out I should have known that their Python 2.7 functions wouldn't run on the 3.2 version they compile with. Yes, from a code print-out. Half way through a few just bail to go surf reddit, with me in full view of their monitors. The remaining people just start answering emails and aren't listening to me anymore, but still are asking questions. The snide remarks were the cherry on top.
