Had got a position from Uncle D as SC and was going to join in a week from next Monday,but just got an offer from Lyft that B4 can't match. This is in data science. What's the best way to say no to D?

If I referred a candidate, I personally wouldn’t feel negative feelings. I suppose D is different, but if you know this person so well, I’m sure they’d be happy for you! **Lots of personal assumptions here

Did you sign a piece a paper for either place? If no, you’re good fam. If you did give a verbal yes, plan to not work at D lol

Of course I did sign D offer letter. But yet to start at all.

Cont'd. The D offer was an internal referral from a very good friend, would this hurt him/her? I just applied to Lyft just for the heck of it, and the progressed super quick in a week. Everything happened after I had already accepted D.

This is one of those cases where full honesty might help everyone understand it just has to be this way.

I'm the hiring mgr for designers in my org. I recently discovered pay band information given to me by the HR generalist I'm working with on hiring was outdated and updated bands had been released over the summer (prior to my hire date). The outdated information had led me to believe a prime candidate was out of range. Aside from incompetence, can anyone think of a reason why HR might have withheld information about the pay bands? I assume mgrs see the full monty when it comes to pay...right?

Right so here’s a bit of a dilemma I work to a much higher standard at home and it’s this high standard that means I’m in line for a promotion. I’ve grown so much and I feel really strong in my role I’m also busier than ever. The problem is we’re going back into the office and I don’t want to go in if it’s just going to be senior management in asking me to get them lunches for client meetings or fetch a glass of water and cutlery for meeting rooms. Definitely not ready to go back to that….
