#meta Recently received and signed a written offer from Meta but was told that the offer was rescinded due to business needs changing. My online portal hasn't changed and I was supposed to relocate in a week... Does anyone know what's going on/has this happened to anyone else?
Fuck meta. Did you resign from your current iob?
yes
Sorry to hear that. It sucks. Only heard this happened before during pandemic.
Times are changing I suggest let the world settle down a bit before jumping.
Changing how?
Recession time
What role, what was the offer, TC?
e4 ~325k
They abruptly stopped my team matching process. I am glad I did not accept or sign anything. Unbelievable company...
Recently?
Yes like a week ago
F that
- when did you get the offer? - when was your start date? - which pillar/team were you supposed to join? - how was your interview performance?
last month, in about half a month, core infra pillar
Makes me glad I accidentally ghosted them after the first recruiter call
What team was this for? Name and shame. This is so shameful of us when we just had our biggest market cap gain in history.
Any word at all if meta is going to freeze hiring or have another round? Min laid off and have an onsite in a couple of weeks
No large scale layoffs or hiring freeze. The company is doing so well right now. What I think is happening is a continuation of reprioritizations, so we might see targeted layoffs on a small scale. I think execs have tasted blood and with the shitty job market, they have free reign to revamp the company as they please, which includes freezing specific offers or small-scale layoffs.
Post the email. You’ve got nothing to lose right?
@OP is faking it out. BS This super unprofessional behavior when no layoffs are happening is highly unlikely. We are talking Meta and not some BS company. Also, OP did not post any details about offer, level, YOE, previous TC?
Good thing I decided not to interview with them.
