Uber Engineering Manager interview questions

Went through the standard process of a recruiter finding me on Angellist and getting a phone screen lined up. The manager I spoke to was informative over the phone, albeit a little cold. Got an onsite relatively quickly. The panel was mixed with engineers, engineering managers, a director, and a product manager. The culture in the office is what really left a bad impression for me. An interview question that stuck out was when a director asked me when I'd put someone on a PIP. I told him I'd work with the engineer to find the root of the issue and help him/her to speed up performance. After two attempts I'd then consider putting them on a PIP. That may take a quarter to go through that process. He looked annoyed and said that was the wrong approach and that basically I should fire that person in weeks. It's not a company I see that will foster creativity and innovation. The feeling in that office was cold and militant. The people I interviewed with, with the exception of one of the engineers, came across arrogant and sometimes rude (one manager asked why I live in the South Bay because they saw it as where all the "dinosaurs" of tech live) While I didn't get the job, even if I did I would be hesitant to accept. And if I did accept I probably would have quit as soon as my year anniversary passed

Recruiter contacted me by email. Had a 10 minutes chat with another recruiter. He arranged a 45 minute phone screening. The screening was odd. The screener was another engineering manager (could not be found in LinkedIn) who did not know to which exact position the interview was for. Neither she could tell who was the hiring manager telling that "Uber just does general talent acquisition".
