I guess an option is going into management, no take homes, DS&A groking, etc.

For me personally I prefer it to live coding as I can actually think because there's no stress but usually the "1-2h task" in reality is 8h if you want it done properly (good code, documentation, tests, project & build setup, etc.). If the job isn't top tier it is simply not worth it, at least in the previous market.

Still beats memorizing the optimal algorithms to LC questions.
