I had a very similar experience with the Watch team at Apple in March of 2019. They flew me out to interview me at the new headquarters. I had four sessions with different interviewers. Each session was with two or three members of the team. One of the sessions was a whiteboard coding test. The interviewers showed the same attitude you saw, which flustered me. I knew the answers, but couldn't get them out because I was nervous, angry, and trying desperately to hide those feelings. I did not get an offer.

Even if I had gotten an offer I doubt I would have accepted it. I found the environment beautiful, but way too distracting. I'm sure I would have failed working in the saucer.
