went through the intensive interview process at FATHOM, which included: - 1 Hackrrank - 1 Recruiter call - 1 Phone Screen - 4 onsite rounds - 1 Tech Talk (A presentation with a topic of my choice) - 1 round with CEO and 1 round with CTO After doing well on all of these rounds, I got a call where the CEO gave me an offer. The recruiter had mentioned that their typical work day is 10-7 PM and there there would be some form of on-call for a few hours every other Saturday. Also, there was no bonus aside from the total compensation. So, I asked for a base compensation that was 8% higher than what they offered me. A day later, they called and said it was the founders decision to rescind my offer. I understand that not all negotiations work out it is outrageous that they are not even willing to talk about it. This is a tough market and , needless to say, this news felt like a gut punch, especially because I gave three weeks of my life to this process, and excelled at every round. To pull an offer from a candidate you thought was a good fit for the company just because they asked about negotiation is entirely inappropriate. The whole experience took a huge toll on my lot of mental health. So just know what what you are getting into.
