What should you ask to get a better sense of company success, as well as what appropriate and polite. For example: revenue, number of customers, operating costs, number of product launches in the pipeline, growth rate of these things. I know a lot of companies won’t tell you most of these things. Mainly wondering for startups who don’t have any info publicly available. What numbers do you use to estimate success and decide on an offer?
I would imagine you would want this information before you apply for the job, no?
I think I would ask how the exec team and lead investors measure success. Then ask for those historical numbers. Could be revenue, growth, NPS, usage metrics, lots of things but the ones they're actually after right now matter

Rahul Gandhi is poison but the people who believe in him are a lot worse
How are you sure they are telling you the truth? Is it legal binding that companies have to talk truth to interview candidates?
Probably not but I doubt companies would straight up lie to potential employees who will find out eventually.
They do lie.
