Is it appropriate to send a group thank you email after an initial interview that was attended by 7 people? If approved to move forward, I would be meeting with most of the members of the interview committee individually, so I was thinking that I would write each person a thank you email at that stage of the process. I appreciate any input.

Just do a separate one for each.

7 people for an initial interview seems crazy. But separate notes for each is a good way to tailor the message for each recipient. Use the same structure for each, but change the particulars to make it personal.

I was also thinking that 7 was a bit much for an initial interview, but the next round would be meeting with a few of them individually, so I understand their method.

Thank you both for the advice! From my research, and the opinion of a friend of mine who is a senior recruiter with a couple of decades of experience, I decided to write a single thank you email to the group, even though I agree that it is usually preferable to send each interviewer a separate message. Needing to write 7 emails that were personalized for each person would take too much time that I didn't feel was necessary considering the structure of the interview. I also took into consideration that if I am approved for the second round of interviews, I will be meeting with many of the same people again individually, so I will be writing separate thank you emails if provided with that opportunity.

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level. Knowing that I can bring a lot of value to the company (read- I know my worth), I negotiated with the hiring manager to have a level/comp review 6 months after employment. If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...
