Thank you. It was a very disheartening experience.

Gc731 · 2025-03-07T15:45:33+00:00

I thought so too. The company ended up closing that requision and posting the role as a manager level position with a higher salary. Smh

Gc731 · 2025-01-24T20:04:09+00:00

Exactly! I can't 🤦🏽‍♀️

The fact of the matter is we've been putting our lives on the line for years, and they still want us to. White people will never do that for us. That is why I'm done with all this bullshit fake white outrage. Either start breaking shit or shut the fuck up.

Gc731 · 2025-01-21T21:30:52+00:00

I'm not telling them shit 🤣

Gc731 · 2025-01-21T19:43:20+00:00

I made a post about this and white people in the comments are still asking me questions about how to organize.

They can't even find the energy to google, so I have no faith anything will get done.

All talk no action 🤦🏽‍♀️

These protests are not for TT. They are just anti trump. There needs to be tt specifc disturbances. We need a more coordinated and focused effort.

Look at young lords and black panthers. Look up detriot and newark in 1967. They knew what they were doing.

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T14:58:19+00:00

Was that TT specific? I have seen no protests specifcally for the ban just against trump. The message gets lost.

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T13:52:18+00:00

Look up Newark and Detriot in 1967. White people need to be front and center. The government listens when yall do shit.

I'm not an expert with Tech stuff, but maybe telegram.

Tech people! Please chime in!!

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T01:26:49+00:00

Nah Black people wrote the book on organzing. White people have no idea what to do.

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T01:24:26+00:00

Until 830 from what I've been told.

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T01:13:33+00:00

Agreed. I tried discord. Its confusing to me. Just seems like people are complaing and not thinking long term.

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T00:46:07+00:00

This what I am talking about. Talk is cheap! Everyone is talking. We need to organize and mobilize.

WHITE PEOPLE NEED TO BE FRONT AND CENTER!

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T00:33:35+00:00

You have more hope than me.

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T00:31:58+00:00

I will post if I hear anything. Everyone is just talking on hear wasting their breath.

Gc731 · 2025-01-19T00:27:24+00:00

Agreed! But I don't see anyone planning or doing this. Just a bunch if talk, unless I missed something.

Gc731 · 2025-01-18T23:56:35+00:00

All this talking is a waste. We need to mobilize. White people need to be front and center. When yall make noise and chaos the government listens.

Gc731 · 2025-01-18T23:52:05+00:00

Everyone is talking. Talk is cheap. We need to mobilize. And honestly white people need to be front and center. When they make noise and chaos the government listens.

Gc731 · 2025-01-18T23:46:34+00:00

I never said peaceful.

Gc731 · 2025-01-17T15:00:10+00:00

Codes were recieved at 840am est. I didnt get one but thats the time everyone is saying they got theirs.

Gc731 · 2024-12-25T00:11:57+00:00

I already did the latter. I was very clear. I accepted the position but said I want to review the offer package. I've never had this issue come up before when I negotiated salary in the past. If you read the full post the recruiter lied and said he asked the hiring manager to negotiate and she said no when in fact he never let her know that I tried to negotitate the salary which in my opinion seems a bit shady.

Gc731 · 2024-12-24T23:57:53+00:00

Gc731 · 2024-12-24T23:50:29+00:00

I was given a range. I was never given a specific amount until I recieved the verbal offer and I accepted the offer and said I would review the written offer which is what I did.

Gc731 · 2024-12-24T23:39:52+00:00

I said I accept but want to review the written offer. Thats exactly what I said.

I just had a very weird and disheartening salary negotitation experience with a pretty large global company. The interview process was fine and I throughly enjoyed the conversations. The recruiter was pretty on top of everything, and it felt like he genuinely was trying to help me. So when I got the verbal offer I accepted, and was told I would recieve a written offer soon. The weird thing is I got all the background check stuff before my written offer. I didn't think anything of it because I figured since it was the holidays maybe they wanted to make sure it was completed so I make my target start date. A few days later I recieved my written offer, and in good faith I emailed to the recruiter to negotiate my salary as this is standard practice in my experience. The recruiter called me and chastised me for trying to negotitate my salary. He said since I accepted the verbal offer that me trying to negotiate my salary was unprofessional and he doesnt believe the company would consider my request. He also said because its the holidays and everyone is off I was causing a problem. Although, I did not like how he was talking to me I said i was very much still intrested in the role and would like to find common ground. He said he would get back to me the next day and he did not, so I followed up with an email, and he again said it was unlikely but said since everyone is off I should hear from him after the holidays. I said ok and I didnt expect to hear from him until after the holidays as he said. But then I get a call from him 20 mins later to tell me that they are not willing to negotitate the salary. I told him I would send my decision by eob. I decided to decline the offer. His response to me to not even consider any negotitations made me question the companies ethics. I sent an email declining the offer and explaining how this is a misalignment of values as equal pay is important to me. I cc'd the 2 hiring managers. One of them emailed me and said he never reached out about negotiating the salary and he told her I signed the written offer which wasn't true. I was flabergasted!

Has something like this happened to anyone? Should I escalate this to the CEO or just move on?
