I interviewed with Meta a few months ago and all my interviewers were upbeat, enthusiastic, and excited. Meanwhile my Google and Amazon interviewers looked miserable and bored as fuck. With Google it's actually been a pattern. Interviewed for them and passed HC three times, but each time I couldn't bring myself to work for them given how bored everyone looked.

A strategy my friend used was to get the "soft offer" and then shop around for a team for as long as it takes to find one that excited him.

  That's literally just Google's hiring practices. There is a team matching phase for all engineers.

    Cool. This was at AWS.

      Oh neat. That is less common as it's usually the teams hiring devs directly.
