You get to see their standards when you interview with them. You are free to decline their offer if you feel that the bar was too low, and maybe their engineers write bad code. On the other hand, they do not know the standards of the company you came from.

In 20+ years, I have rarely seen a technical interview actually be indicative of a team’s standards. I’ve seen good, bad, and much in between, but mostly I’ve found the “standards” communicated during the interview to be purely aspirational at best.
