"there will come a time when we are banging our heads against a problem and there is a deadline looming and we’re tired and people are pissed at us and money and jobs and reputations are all on the line."

Real response to this should be to ask how it got to the point where we are all stuck in a room with a deadline looming and our jobs are on the line if we don't come up with a whiteboard solution RIGHT NOW.

Sounds like this place has a management/expectations problem and I wouldn't want to work there in the first place.

The idea that a coding interview is there to be "won" seems to me to be fundamentally delusional.
