Yes, this happened to me when I joined google. I think there was a mixup with someone hired at the same time with the same name. So I was told I was being hired at L5 but was in the system as L3. I raised it as a problem and tried to resolve it.
Management response: I was asked to resign (in the most clear terms possible).
- nonplussed 6y agoThat's odd they would ask you to resign although 2 levels lower is weird. I had something similar happen to me last year. When receiving an offer, I was told I would be at L6 but found out after I was hired at L5 (both levels are considered Senior Engineer). The title is the same and the comp was as agreed, just that I thought the level would be higher. Lesson learned for next time. Always get something like that in writing.
