Disney Streaming Services I completed my interview process with DSS early last week, and was reached out by recruiter that all rounds were strong hires, and they are extending an offer. We set a time to talk on Friday about the offer. However, the announcement of targeted hiring freeze happened on Friday. I was ghosted with no call. What should I expect now? Would I still have chance to be offered?

During my internship, I trusted an associate with my career goals. Biggest mistake ever.
Basically in a 1 on 1 with my associate, I alluded to having career interests outside of finance. I was still questioning tech or consulting. She let my manager know, who proceeded to basically interrogate me about why I wanted to 'leave IBD.' As an intern, it was awful. Looking back on it, I should've kept my mouth shut but it was also extremely cruel what the management did. My manager & associate didn't want to give me an offer, but my MD loved me because I was good- got an offer, told them no way in hell. Made it to GS (going on 3rd year), and in a week I'll be in Tech.
I work at DB, so I would say -10. This place is like a live reenactment of Game of Thrones.
Story please GS2?
If you're totally transparent with colleagues you're competing against for success in your role and you haven't gotten burned by them yet, odds are good that you will soon. Bureaucratic/political nature of the business makes information so much easier to use against someone. Time and a place for transparency, but not all the time.
@GS2 what do you mean?

@GS2: good for you. Your story tells you everything you need to know about the quality of people management in banks. Best of luck with the next step.
Never let people know what you're up to/how busy you are. They get jealous
Generally 1. But a few of us who were friends were more like 5.
