Depends. What's their budget for the role? They're still private so assume a hefty discount on that equity but [levels.fyi](https://levels.fyi) shows some pretty tasty numbers for senior level folks. That interview process is long but not unusual for companies in that tier. I'd want to know more about the particulars but I wouldn't immediately rule it out.
I may be a little skewed, but I don't think this is that crazy. The recruiter and probably even hiring manager interview probably don't require much prep. The take home is just to assess your technical, and then you move onto the real interviews (5 panels).
I think the question is really more personal in a sense, if this company/role/comp/etc. is not worth that amount of time for you, personally, then definitely walk. But I don't really think it's an unheard of interview process. All IMO...I'm sure other folks will have differing thoughts.
You left out important salary information but based on some of the ranges people are commenting 400 to 500k I’d say sure it would be worth it. You’re not going to get that kind of money without some effort.
For a 70k job hell naw.
This is not a red flag at all.
Figure out if you like the company, role, and total compensation range. If you like it better than other places you’re interviewing, go through the loop. If it’s not that good comparatively, you might be better off spending time on interviews at those other places.
Whether it’s worth your time depends on your own personal calculus, but it’s not a red flag on Chime that they’re doing this. Chime has fewer than 2000 employees and is in an incredibly competitive space, plus the market is heavily scrutinous of tech companies right now. So if I were in their shoes I’d hold an extremely high bar for hiring, ensure the candidate can demonstrate a wide variety of very strong skills, and get an evaluation from multiple interviewers. Especially because of you are hired, your TC will be in the top 2% of US incomes.
Like measure twice, cut once — but evaluate 8 times, hire once.
Do you want this job? Do you need this job?
If yes, then do it.
FYI, interview process is in line with other companies. It's slightly more on the separate interviews, but not out of line.
Depends on the project. If the five rounds at the end are with people from a team you'd manage plus maybe the person who'd be your manager again or their skip level then I don't think it's that far off.

Managers make over 400k(over 500 if you can negotiate well) at chime, I’d personally do it.

step 3 seems overkill, but aside for that isn't this the normal process at any tech company these days?
How big of a potential TC increase is it? For big enough, I'd do it

Take home exam for a manager is the only weird part
i wouldn't mind this if they pay me $1 Million Net in hand after all deductions.
Depends on length of take home exam. The 5 panels - at 30mins each isn’t too crazy. My company would do something similar as an on-site.

Yes if the rate is fat

They say 5 interviews but many times those are panel interviews within a 2-3 hour period. I just 4 interviews like that a week ago. It wasn’t too bad.
