In practice, facing down some 25 year old who’s been at the company for all of 9 months, it is all about “the answer.” In some cases, it’s about 3 answers. Often, it’s actually about their answer — you must do it their way, otherwise you are wrong.

This is not the case 100% of the time, but it is often enough that if you’re interviewing in SF, particularly at startups, you will see it at least every few interviews. It’s ridiculous.

Doesn't sound like a place anyone would want to work at anyway.

That's the great thing about an on-site interview, the evaluation goes both way.
