I interviewed for a dev job a good many years ago. I hadn't heard of the company at the time (they were pretty small so there was no reason that I should have) so I did a lot of research. I remember that their financials were looking decidedly bumpy, but almost always in the black.
I asked about this at the interview. The lady interviewing me looked offended that I would ask about their financial situation as it was "not really something [I] should be worrying about".
I didn't get the job, and their feedback was that they wanted a dev, not an accountant.
Not assessing the financial situation of small employers pretty much has always lead to them going bankrupt in my limited experience. And employers unwilling to give any indications are the ones that leave paychecks un-funded when they do (that was an SOs employer).
