I didn't say or even imply that it was malicious. Regardless, it's disrespectful and unprofessional. I fail to see how adding yet another SaaS tool into the mix of the dozens that companies already use is somehow going to fix what is essentially a cultural problem. Applicant Tracking Systems have already been a thing for a long time now.

From talking to many hiring managers who use take-homes and using 3 ATSs myself, most engineering take-home processes don't run through the ATS.

I agree with you that it's disrespectful to candidates. My point is that it's not just a cultural problem - it's also a tooling problem.
