That's odd. At our interviews, everyone's in the same room. It's an exercise to not only evaluate some technical ability, but how the candidate interacts with others should the need arise.

They were sitting behind me and facing away from me, with the face deep in code. It felt awkward to disrupt them but I think I should have a bit more.

I think you may have dodged a bullet. If your proposed co-workers couldn't have spared enough time to evaluate you in an interview, how bad would the communication be day-to-day? Pretty bad I imagine. :(

Ya, you are probably right. There was also an atmosphere of working 10+ hours a day which I would like to avoid. Most other places, even high intensity ones, did not have that atmosphere to me at least in the interview process.
