Due Diligence has begun and I’m being asked to evaluate whether teammates are performing at or above their level.

Hi Fishes,
I recently got shortlisted for a Product Manager position at Tracxn. There’s also an IPO coming up which is the reason I had applied.
But I have read some horrifying reviews about the company on Glassdoor, indeed and other forums.

I’m wondering whether it’s worth going through the interview process and I’d also like to hear opinions from anyone who has worked with the company or is aware of the company culture.

Thanks.

Presence Saint is criminal… they billed my insurance over $5,600 for an er visit plus an additional $1,100 for the physician to interpret results of my ekg. I have high deductible insurance and understand that I need to meet that deductible…but the charges to my insurance provider (UHC) seem astronomical for the services i received. I had some chest pain, physician basically said “no big deal” and now big bill

Does this make sense at all? Any guidance on steps to get these charges reduced?
