Recently I was contacted about a position i had applied and interviewed for last year. They still have not filled the position. This isn't the first time but more like the fifth. The company reached out to me directly about the position. I declined. If they can't fill a position in a year to me that say a lot about the company and their leadership. Am I wrong?

Hard to tell. Could be they ran a long recruitment round because they didn't get many applications. Maybe they had a candidate in mind who pulled out. Or they were being too selective, changed their criteria, and you came out as the top pick.
