Frustrating Interview Experience with Goldman Sachs

I've been actively interviewing for the past six months, and recently I had a particularly frustrating experience with Goldman Sachs. This was about my 30th company in this period.

Round 1: Online Assessment (cleared)
Round 2: CoderPad (cleared) – A lady conducted this round and was sweet and humble.
Round 3: Coding/Pseudo Code Round (cleared) – Two associate level ladies took this round, and one of them was very arrogant.
Round 4: Software Engineering Round (cleared)
Round 5: System Design Round – Two interviewers were present, and this was one of the worst experiences I've had. One interviewer was very intimidating and arrogant. While I was answering one person, the other would constantly interrupt, breaking my flow. This continued for an hour. One of the interviewers was extremely rigid and was not ready to consider alternate approaches.

Also interview process at goldman sachs is extremely slow after each round there would be a gap of a week or 2

This cycle of interviews has become all too familiar:

I clear most rounds but get rejected at the managerial round due to salary constraints.
I encounter arrogant interviewers who reject me despite my qualifications.
