Most of my jobs have been by referral. So I knew someone in the job before I even applied.
During one in-person interview, I walked through the office with my prospective hire, talked to a number of the current staff, and saw the (miserable) conditions of the office. This was - ostensibly - while they were interviewing me.
I was reluctant to take the job, and spoke to the hiring manager, who offered me an additional $10k on top of the first offer. Then I used their salary negotiation to leverage a wage bump at my own office, because I was able to see what I was worth on the open market.
