Bloomscape interview questions

From the time I applied to Bloomscape through the time they closed the application, it was 10+ weeks from start to finish. The interview process consisted of 6 different interviews with 8 different people. -Round 1: Phone screen with recruiter -Round 2: Video interview with hiring manager -Round 3: Video interview with 1 team member -Round 4: Video interview with 2 team members -Round 5: Video interview with 1 team member -Round 6: Video interview with 2 team members Interviews 3-6 all took place within a single week. When I followed up the following week I was told that the position was on hold indefinitely. I am rating the experience as neutral because there were positives and negatives: + I liked Bloomscape for the mission and the people. Every person I spoke with was smart, knowledgeable and kind - and I would have enjoyed working with and learning from each of them. + It was evident the interviewers did their homework and coordinated what they would ask me beforehand. Even with 8 different people that I spoke with I rarely got the same questions twice. - I didn't like Bloomscape because the messaging was inconsistent. Sometimes the position was needed urgently and had senior management support and budget, and sometimes the position was on-hold due to changing strategic priorities. - I got the impression that decisions at Bloomscape are made "by committee". LinkedIn shows 47 current employees and I met with 8 of them. So that tells me 17% of their employees were involved in even just this one hiring decision. I have mixed feelings about this. Does this approach indicate a strong need for consensus to move forward? Or, does this indicate that senior management has a lack of trust in having just a couple of employees make a hiring decision?
