I applied through the university's Co-op office, and I got an offer to work in San Francisco office starting from this coming January. This early-October, I contacted the person, who gave me an offer, to change my start date. However, the response I got was from another person who works at Nashua, NH office, saying that I have been relocated to the Nashua office with a decrease in salary due to the company's "policy change". When I responded that I am confused with such sudden change since I already have been arranging a car lease and housing in SF, the person replied back saying that he doesn't understand why I have been doing that when I don't have an official offer letter. I thought that was very rude since Arista clearly did give me an offer through the university's office. If that's how Arista does its recruiting business, I wouldn't want to work for Arista anyway because I can already sense how the company treats its people. As a student, I don't mind too much about the salary decrease. But, let's be honest, would you work for Google if you need to work at the most random city where you don't have your family or friends around? If your engineers cannot properly handle both engineering and recruitment tasks, hire more HR people. This kind of recruitment process is just not acceptable.
