My experience with Softmax was marked by a lengthy 8-round interview process, unclear expectations from interviewers, reluctance to embrace innovation, and inappropriate low-level questions (such as syntax) for a candidate with 13 years of experience. Just got a generic/automated rejection email. The rejection process lacked transparency and the response was unhelpful and rude, reflecting negatively on the company's values and culture. Overall, it was a disappointing experience that left doubts about their decision-making for future hires and their respect for candidates' time.
