I have received an offer from a no name startup in GTA ( Ontario) ,
I have accepted the offer verbally and they agreed to send the final offer letter next week and on the same day received another offer ( expiring in 3 days after receiving) .
Since, i have asked to expedite the process and politely said I'll be receiving other offers in next week and that helps me wrapping up with the job search process" . Also mentioned " I'm sure we will find a package where we are both happy with" because, ' i really love the team that i have interviewed with and said my priority is to join this company and work with them" .
Today they have sent me " Thanks for your openness, the way the compensation works is very structured and transparent , it's the same for everyone, and depends on other factors like experience and skillset".
" " They also mentioned that '' you wrote. # I'm sure we'll be able to find a package that we're both happy with '' this intonated that you were looking to negotiate " and while entertaining other offers you were expecting to receive. This does not match our corporate ' philosophy' and that is why we have decided to go with another candidate . This is final and consider the offer is rescinded.
"
Update:
The hiring person blocked me on LinkedIn WTF ๐Ÿ™.

Am i an idiot for asking that ?
