Just finished a third interview and the recruiter casually mentioned they’re “re-evaluating compensation bands.” I’m not sure if that’s a good sign or corporate speak for “don’t expect much.” Has anyone had that happen right before an offer—did it mean a bump was coming or a lowball?

Doesn’t sound like a good sign….i would probably expect a lowball but could be surprised!
