Have recently interviewed at an agency. The hiring manager was 30 minutes late, checked his phone constantly, and proudly declared, "I like to work and play hard".

Should I consider these red flags? Should I drop out? I passed that round, but may just call the whole thing off. I just didn't vibe with that... but I'm also desperate for a change, basically.

I would suggest go for the next round, rather go as far it takes and then decide. As you mentioned you r desperate for change, don’t let it go so quickly.

It could be a test to see how you would professionally react to a brash personality. Keep going. The more you know about their work culture will help you decide what your are willing and not willing to put up with during future job interviews/environments. It will definitely help you work on personality flexing. Hope you find the job that makes you happy with a good work life balance!
