I had a very similar experience with a company that advertises on HN quite a bit. It turns out the company had actually split in two, and all the competent managers left to join the new company. It was amazing how much the VP and CEO would constantly contradict each other, sabotage projects, and even insult their own staff members (at one point I recommended they promote a senior eng to a higher position, but the VPE went on a rant about how the last person she promoted, who still worked there, didn't live up to the title so she didn't want to promote anyone else).

Anyways if you see a company that is constantly using their free job listing every month on this site you should probably assume there's a reason they are constantly looking, and it isn't always good.
