Did they give any specifics on what wasn't strong enough? Like code quality, edge cases, speed?

Got the same rejection after two rounds. Solved both problems. "Not strong enough" seems to be their standard rejection line, gives you zero info to work with.

Yeah, interviewer seemed fine during the round too, no red flags. The gap between how the round felt and the feedback is what gets me.

The BFS/grid stuff is very consistent with Snowflake from what I've seen. At least you know what to expect next time.
