Really upset today. I gave interview for Illumina and cleared all the rounds, as per HR feedback was good in tech rounds, submitted the payslip of 3 month. Later HR shared that they wont be able to give 30% hike on fixed pay but 20% on total pay that includes the shares as well.
I asked them to get back with exact figure.Last week they shared me that they will be giving me offer early this week and today I received mail that the position is on hold for internal discussions. Time loss-2 mnth

YOE: 6.5
Current CTC: 14.3 lpa including 1.2 fixed component

Now Got an offer in Illumina
CTC offered: 20.2 lpa + 1.52 variable + 1.5 joining bonus + $10,000 in stocks

Considering the recent layoff of Illumina, is that a wise decision to switch there?

Hi,
I also completed the interview rounds & I'm at HR discussion. Pls let me know whether joining illumina is a good choice or not? Coz I'm having another 2 offers is hand from top service companies,

Hello, everyone.
Sharing the update, HR contacted me and shared the offer letter. The process was indeed super slow(I gave the first round during November, last round December, and received an offer on Feb first week). However, I received the offer.
I am unable to delete or modify the post, so I'm posting here as a comment.
Regards.

Hi even I attended the interview they asked for my payslips, Can you please share after how many day after sharing the pay slip they scheduled the discussion for you, Also the role you have been selected for

Lesson learnt keep giving interviews unless you join the organization as few companies are revoking the offer letters too...positions on hold is too common nowadays..Best wishes

Same happened with me..really upset it’s been almost a year I’ve been trying I was a bit relieved as I got to know I’ve been shortlisted but then again I was out on hold.

Ugh I'm so sorry you went through that, thanks for sharing the company though. I hate when people feel the need to protect companies that did them wrong.

I haven't gone through that specifically but I have learned the hard way not to dismiss or put off other opportunities because there's another I like more that I want to focus on. Ive been burned a few times.

This happens in many companies, I had a similar experience with Hexware where they wasted 3 months with multiple rounds for architect position and later getting ghosted by the HR. Luckily the position is hold for you before you took the offer, in certain cases the position has closed after joining the company immediately and you will be moved to bench which is still risky
