Process

The beginning of the process was great, but as things went on more red flags began to appear.

No contact for nearly a month after final interview, then they reached out to proceed and asked for a salary range. They confirmed the range worked for them, asked me to hold off on accepting other offers for nearly two weeks, then came back with an offer nearly 33% below the bottom of my range. Recruiter was unresponsive over email and would only work over unplanned phone calls, despite me saying repeatedly that I have lots of meetings and can’t often take unscheduled calls. Hiring manager did not respond to single email, including during the offer process when I had a couple of questions about the team.
