I’m honestly still trying to process this and could use some advice.
Last month, I received and signed a job offer from a tech company I was really excited about. Everything seemed finalized on my end. I had already committed, and we were just waiting for onboarding details.
Then out of nowhere, they told me the offer was being put “on hold.” A few days later, they officially rescinded it, citing “reorganization” because a VP from the department left. Apparently, that somehow affected my role, which honestly doesn’t make much sense to me.
The only silver lining is that I did not decline my other pending offers right away. I ended up accepting a better one, so I am okay now, but the whole situation still feels off.
I cannot help but feel like this should not be allowed. From what I understand, rescinding a signed offer, especially this late in the process, might not be entirely lawful, or at least it feels unethical.
At this point, I am torn:
Should I just move on since things worked out for me anyway?
Or is this something worth pursuing, like reporting, legal action, or at least holding them accountable?
Would really appreciate hearing if anyone has gone through something similar or knows what the realistic options are here.
