Hi sharks,
How to deal with guilt of rejecting offer, HR was too sweet, but once I rejected the offer she became very sad and politely explained her challenges and also tried to even check if she could get me better role and offer, buy i rejected telling i got another offer which is wfh. The company is startup and expecting WFO.

This same company wouldnt think twice to kick u out once things start going south for them .( To save money)
This is reality of most startups , so don't feel guilty.
Everyone out there is looking for a better deal

Koi kisi ka saga nai

True words!!

Don't feel guilty to reject any offer.we too put lots of efforts to attend and prepare for interview.

We take out time and follow all process.

Definitely we want all organisations to grow,do better but we should look for most suitable job as per our choice.

I cleared all rounds including HR rounds for 2 companies. HR said they will release offer letter in a weeks time maximum. After 2 weeks I called them and they didn't have courtsey to pick my call or respond to my emails. I moved on later.

It's all about the demand and supply..no place for emotions.

I did the same as I told HR I will not come back with counter so I kept my words but he betrayed by low balling me. Now I am repenting a lot. This was my first switch after 9 years but the same company is giving joining bonus to immediate joiners, I too had 1 week left to join but they dint give me. They gave way too more salary to very less experienced ppl with same techstack as that of mine.

So you learn the lesson and don't be emotional

Chahe naukri ho ya chhokri, emotional logo ka hamesha kat ta hai, 2 din ka guilt badiya hai zindagi bhar k regret se. Ye galti mat karna k kisi ki khwahish ko uski majburi samajh lena. They want you but they will settle with anybody else as well. You are just an option for them, once their options start to increase, they will not take a moment to ditch you. Aur HR ladki hai isliye u r getting more emotional, firto yaad rakhna doguna lagaan katega.
