Basically title says. I interviewed with this company, went through 2 interview processes. I was sent a job offer 30 minutes after the 2nd interview. I’m ecstatic as it is a 40% pay increase of my current job. I accept, give my two weeks notice to my current employer and what not. I completed the onboarding HR sent me and signed everything last week. Two days ago, which would make a week exactly since I signed the offer letter, I get an email saying they would not be able to move forward with my offer due to “internal changes they had to remove the open position, but will keep my resume on file.” I am at a loss for words because I JUST put my two weeks in. I begged my boss to try and keep me at my current employer but she told me HR could do nothing about it. So here I am, without a *** stable job because this company screwed me over. I gave them a negative Glassdoor review about my experience and how the company left me jobless. I get an email this morning from the company asking me to take down the negative review as it hurts their reputation. I don’t feel bad at all for what I’ve done since this company has left me without a *** job.

Edit: Wow, I really didn't think my post would get this much traction lol. Thank you all so much for your comments, I was honestly feeling a little scared since I've never been in a situation like this before. The reassurance from the comments definitely helped me. I will get in contact with an employment lawyer and see where it goes from there. :) Thank you all so much again! ❤️

Edit 2: For people asking me to name and shame, while I really do want to, I’m not sure how much legal trouble I could get in. Company could sue me for “defamation” for all I know, even though I have proof of everything. I am just trying to be cautious and hope this doesn’t damage my future career.

I sympathize with this guy. He should def work with an employment lawyer to sue it.

Its not a good idea to change employments during times like these (Recession) where jobs are getting cut left and right and budget cuts.

Even if you want to change jobs, do not resign your current job until you join the new and make sure its the right environment for you. Give it a month. Take leave in current company for that 1 month.
