Here are few signs that you should look for while search for such a job:
1. Glassdoor reviews mentions 'good work like balance'.
2. The hiring manager (the position you applied for) is 12+ years in the same organization.
3. The organization has at least 10K+ employees.
4. The organization recently had a merger/takeover by another big corp.
5. The team (for which you are being interviewed) does not have a CI/CD pipeline.
6. The product is inherently on-premise deployable software i.e. has to be deployed on the customer's machine and cannot be a SaaS. Ex: Datacenter monitoring/automation software.
7. The product has multi month/quarter release cycle.
8. The organization does not follow 360 degree review i.e. does not collect feedback from all the team members during yearly performance review but its mostly about the manager's comments.
