After seeing a few of the ads, I went and looked at their HR website to see what kind of jobs they had open.

Their HR website was all flash, around the time when it was obvious to any competent engineer that flash was going the way the dodo. It also didn't work. (It was one of those websites where someone spent a lot of time concentrating on graphics but didn't really know how to get it to work.)

"Bad smell" was an understatement.

I wouldn't judge a company by its HR website. It's likely a relatively turn-key product that was chosen by a non-technical department and then neglected.
