How long to hear back after BB SD?

Title^. Have had 2 BB SDs, one a week ago (I assume I'm waitlisted/rejected), one yesterday (Thursday), and it's currently Friday 5pm. I've heard that with BBs HR can take a while but is that just copium? Am I waitlisted from both?

Curious to hear your guys thoughts/experiences with BBs specifically
For second BB, had a VP and Director respond to my thank you email.. not sure if thats a good sign. One said "Great connecting, best of luck in your recruiting process". D said "Great meeting you". Am I cooked?
