One of the FAANGs is reneging after I accepted and signed on the written offer, telling me that they offered one level above (by mistake) than what i was approved for. They are now offering a lower compensation which is basically lower than what i make today and dont want to accept it. I took steps at my current job and wrt housing which can’t be fully rolled back. What are my options?

This is the flip side of an environment where you are free to renege on offers. You may be able to recover your direct expenses, but it’s unlikely that you will receive meaningful damages and you cannot make them give you the job they originally offered.

Consult an employment attorney to understand what the options are in your state.

I’d ask to chat with the hiring manager and not the recruiter. Make your case to try and bring up the offer to at least your current comp if not more. At most faangs, the bands pre-director level are pretty wide, so I’d try to work with the HM who I’d assume would be the decision maker here.

Had you come to an agreement with them on level during interviews and discussions? Which level did you originally anticipate being offered? There isn't much you can do, but you might be able to negotiate to meet in the middle of the two offers.

Yes, level offered initially was aligned to my expectations and was communicated when they extended the offer. New level is below my skills/ yoe.

Is there anyway you can stay in your role and housing situation?

Housing no. Role yes but now i will be considered a flight risk and expect impact on growth

I have two job offers, one offers a salary of 61.5k and the other job offers an hourly rate of $27.65 with $41.48 for OT, as well as Sales Incentive Compensation Plan where the annual target incentive compensation is 42.86%. In other words, I could potentially receive quarterly bonuses that add up to around $24,650. However, that bonus isn’t guaranteed according to the offer letter and is contingent on my and my clients performance. Should I take the first job or second job?

I’ve been poor my entire life and on my own since I was 16. I worked really hard to get to a managment position in a statewide foundation. I’m in a lot of debt from putting myself through college and I feel like no matter how hard I work I can’t get ahead. I think because I’m poor I often ended up getting underpaid because the salaries sounds like a lot of money to me. I found out I’m being paid way below my industry salary range and I just feel like a loser.
