Curious to know why you decided to take a pay cut.
And you mentioned that you lied during the interview regarding your salary. In India, companies usually ask for 3 months salary slip as proof. Does it not happen in the country where you work?
- codemonkeythrow 8y agoI was laid off from the $40,000 job due to downsizing, then I spent a few months job hunting, so I was extremely happy about getting a new job, regardless of the salary. Lying about my salary was a huge gamble, I guess. But since the FAANGs are based in the US and I wasn't, I was counting on them not asking for the IRS tax returns since I obviously didn't have one.
- flerchin 8y agoIn the US, there is no salary verification. They ask, but you can lie, refuse to state, or answer. It's just a negotiation tactic.
