This literally just happened to my husband. The crazy thing is, he made his salary requirement clear from the very beginning, they played into it as if he had nothing to worry about, then low-balled him after the second interview! He came back with an honestly gracious compromise and boom - ghosted. Why do companies do this? Do they just enjoy wasting people's time?!

Hi all,

After the final interview, HR reached out and said they would like to extend an offer. HR gave a ball park of 135k - 145k base with about 15k in sign-on equity and 20k annual bonus.

After a couple of days, HR person came back with with 125k base and 20k annual bonus. No sign-on equity anymore. What should I do given that these numbers seem way lower than the initial range provided? HR claimed it’s because of “market conditions”.
