Absolutely, many people don't realize that interviews are a two way street. Not only is the company interviewing you to assess your technical skills and cultural fit, but you are interviewing the company as well to see whether you'd like to work there.

If you're a "superstar" (I don't really like that term), you want to work with other talented individuals. So if the interview process is non-existent or overly easy, it sends a negative signal about the "potential" quality of other hires.

I'm not referring to the high level conversations that occur between company and employee. I'm more referring to the "nuts and bolts" process of doing fizzbuzz and writing out binary tree parsers and things like that.
