Accepted an offer yesterday and got invited to interview at a faang today. Hiring manager/future boss for accepted offer came from same faang. Is it worth taking the interview if there is a small, but non zero probability of hiring manager finding out and rescinding the offer?

Accept the interview. Do not disclose that you have signed another offer. But do say that you are in the recruiting process elsewhere.

Accept the interview. Even if he finds out you interviewed at FAANG why would the mgr rescind?

There is still a need at the company and you are their no 1 choice.

Your new role is probably at-will. You should interview at faang and see where that takes you. Hopefully the interview process wont take long

like

Yes to taking interview assuming that’s your top choice. Don’t tell the company name if you get the faang offer and end up reneging the accepted one.

Should I let faang know I’ve accepted an offer?

No

How did you prep for the interviews ?

Take the interview. Just know that the Google interview process at best is 6 weeks, usually it's 2-3 months and sometimes it goes longer

Yep. Interview process is long. Easily 6-8 discussions

Please help. I’ve moved up the ranks pretty quickly at the company I work for to become a Principal SE. My manager thinks the best next step for me is to move into management and leadership and has started pushing me to apply for an engineering manager role. They say that I will be a good fit because of my strong technical background paired with the leadership and people skills I display currently.

I’m torn because I do love being an IC but I’m interested in leadership also. What do I do?

I was given offer by Mastercard in month of Dec The hike was less but looking at brand & other perks I accepted the offer & was looking forward to joining them.I got few offers & I went back to them for sole purpose of renegotiating CTC, to have a industry standard hike. They didn't reverted back for 2-3 days & just dropped a mail that they are revoking initial offer as well on grounds that they didn't like i gave other interview
