The company provides feedback during the interview process, however they do not provide any feedback during the final "loop" interview. For those who do not know, the loop is a set of 45 minute individual behavioral interviews with 6 separate employees, one of which is not even from the same department. I basically had to sit in front of my computer from 8am-6pm for an entire day completing this loop. Honestly, it was a royal pain in the ass, and did not seem necessary. Perhaps I dodged a bullet, or two.

The comp plan for this role as of last summer was around a 130k base + 90k a year in RSU's, with a vesting schedule of I believe 4 years.

If anyone has additional questions about this, I'd be glad to share my experiences.

The fact you went through it and did not get an offer proves it was necessary.
And from a company’s perspective, they dodged a bullet. It just depends on which side you’re sitting.
