This question already has an answer here:

I am leaving the company for another opportunity as I am quite dissatisfied about the behaviors of some colleagues. HR specifically asked me what I think about other people in my team in a meeting room. Since I'm not sure whether I will work for the company again, I lied and said everyone was nice and helpful, and I'm just not OK with the content of my work.

What is the purpose of this question? Should I be honest about the inappropriate words and behaviors of some of my team members if given a second chance? Or would it be fine to just focus on the good side of colleagues?

It is a best practice that you never tell officially exactly what you think about colleagues, bosses and companies.

Sooner or later, your honesty will hit you back, because we are all people and we are not perfect. The desire for revenge is too big in us all (or at least, in most of us).

ESPECIALLY: do not say anything bad about former colleagues, employees, companies DURING AN INTERVIEW! They will assume that you will speak bad of them in the future too, if something unpleasant happens.

Best course of action: be politically correct - only say good things. Claim that you leave because of better opportunities (or anything similar). DO NOT FALL into the trap to tell the truth, regardless of the tricks they apply to get it from you.
