Hi fishes, what are the chances of Pwc AC bangalore rescinding an offer given the current market condition? The role in my offer letter seems to be pretty generic and during interviews, it didn't look like, they were interviewing for a particular project or team. I have doubts specifically because of HR's behaviour during the whole recruitment process where they never responded to my emails or calls. Is this normal practice?

The new company I’m at now sent me an email from an email address that was HR@companyName.careers saying I was accepted for the position. They gave me paperwork to fill out and sign to accept the position
I fill out the paperwork and send it back to them and it goes through… then a few days later I go back to the email to say something else and I get this…?
Then today I got a check from the company In the mail to setup my home office, and it’s signed by someone I’ve never met before or heard of…?
What…..

Better make sure you are being hired in to a project at a work location that you like before you accept the offer. Do not make the mistake of coming in as a general management consultant and then testing out the waters. If you don't find the right role in a certain period of time you will be coaxed to taking a position that is out of the way for you.
I would bring it up to the hiring manager. If you’re not being hired to work on a specific contract you generally have a lot of autonomy on project selection. Depending on your background, should be able to find something that works for you with a DC client site/option to work out of a DC office

It depends on the team.
If you're hired to a req for a specific project then it's not so much negotiating as making sure the project is in your desired location before you accept or even interview for the role.
I disagree about not coming in as a capability hire without a specific project lined up. I was hired that way and was allowed a lot of flexibility regarding my ultimate project. Ultimately it's true that eventually you're just going to have to be billable so if it's been a while and none of your desired projects come through, you will get pressure to find something a little bit further away, but some teams are great about working as hard as they can about making sure you're happy with your project so it's really about making sure you join a good team. Kind of hard to do from the outside but not impossible!

I hope they’re giving you a pay hike for the benefit loss.
