Per aspera ad astra! It is a game. In principle, both sides lie and no one should tell the truth at all. The company talks about what high standards, processes, workflows, work-life balance they have while they expect from the applicant high quality work, clean and bug free code, 10 years of experience, expert for each technology, linguistically gifted, communication miracle, leadership, etc.
In the end you need only a piece of luck, and after a poor onboarding of maybe one hour, you find out, that it is like everywhere: scrum is an endless sprint from week to week, no body has understood it. The C level does understand you and does follow the own rules about software development, the frontend does not understand the backend, the backend does not understand scaling, the admins don’t understand the backend and don’t care about scaling. The post mortem or retrospective discussions can be copied from the last one, because nobody reads them. To make the long story short: they still put their trousers on one leg at a time. No magic, no miracle. Good luck
