I went through four interviews with (insert popular encrypted messaging solution) a while ago and got a verbal offer, then proceeded to be ghosted entirely, no more replies, from multiple people. Still don't know what happened.

How is this acceptable? So much wasted time, and not just for me. I basically interviewed the entire team I was supposed to be working with.

Why redact the company name? It would be a kindness to warn us away from them.

I still respect what they do, I don't respect their hiring practices or representatives. They are quite present on HN, for what it's worth.
