Remote offer from US based startup rescinded abruptly.
So I recently applied for a SWE role at a US startup. I had an intro call followed by a technical interview, and I got an offer on May 16, 2026.
An onboarding call happened on Monday (May 18), the CTO walked me through the entire product and what components I am going to own and work on.
Few hours after the call, he messaged me saying he would shortly send invites for my company email account and repositories. Nothing came that day.
Today, I woke up with an offer rescinded email, no mention of the reason. I’m totally devastated.
Just wanted to share this and know whether you have had a similar experience before.
