I'm interviewing with a smaller tech company, and they are being very evasive about things like comp and benefits. Think it's a red flag?

Could be, but they're inexperienced - more likely they have no idea what they're doing.

It depends. I've just been hired at a late tech firm who told me the comp before I even started the interview process bc they didn't want to waste their time in case I was money motivated and they didn't have enough budget. Your company might be a) looking for a person who cares more about the work than the salary, or b) they don't have a specific budget and are free to find a person they want and pay what that person costs. I'd guess b), so just go with it and see.

I had cleared all the rounds in S&P and had salary discussion 1.5 month back. The HR is always saying the management is on leave and will soon get the approval and release offer. Today she shas asked for one more week to release the offer. Should I wait for it or move on. Are they waiting for some other candidate to join before rejecting me at last moment. Only 10 days of my LWD are left.

Which one would you choose?

1) Am100 firm with 1900+ billable hour requirement, very reputable in the region
2) Am200 firm with 1750+ billable hour requirement, less reputable in the region because it’s a satellite office, pays $35k less than option 1

Went into industry a couple months ago. Previously 3 years in consulting. Okay gig but doesn’t feel right for me and want to apply elsewhere. Is it acceptable to tell recruiters it wasn’t a right fit if they ask about the short time I’ve been at the company? How can I phrase it better? Will switching now look bad?
