The interviewee is _always_ more vulnerable than the hiring manager/employer. And the interviewee does _not_ have the luxury of finding out about whether the manager/team/company is "normal" by asking a bunch of euphemistic questions, because the interviewee is judged _even_ on the questions they ask.


I've never judged a candidate poorly for asking penetrating questions about the team they are joining.

I don't think you should be afraid to ask those questions yourself.
