78k as a senior in Chicago is severely underpaid... we’re bringing in our campus hires around 70 in a similar COL market. Although with that being said, the exit isn’t a huge increase either so maybe hold out for another offer?

Definitely understandable. All comes down to how dead set you are on getting out. The new role definitely sounds like a step in the right direction

ge t out IT audit!

Yah but you will continue to be in IT audit. I agree with other posters, I’d get out as soon as you can.

Hey all! I went through the interviewing process with a company and we had a verbal agreement on X amount of salary per year. They liked me and extended an offer but the offer was for $15K less than what we agreed bc that’s what HR approved for. I was desperate so I took it. Accepting this offer meant that I had to relocate to the other side of the country. Omw that was 2500 miles, I received a call that they rescinded the offer. Is there anything legal that I can do to sue them?
