With experience I have learned to stop relying on how the interview feels, but look more at the facts instead. Some companies who did feel strict during the interviews actually were really good companies. The opposite is true, I interviewed a company that seemed open minded and fun. The interview in appearance was quite enjoyable, but with huge red flags. The CTO was always talking (super fast) and just wouldn't let me speak. I could ask only one question (during 1h) and was rudely interrupted in the end because he had no more time. The CTO also said something like "If you join this company you will work with very competent engineers, smarter than you". To which I humorously answered while defending my pride, but probably ended up looking like someone full of himself. Clearly this is not someone I would enjoy working with on a daily basis.
