The interview process was speedy. My second interview I spoke directly with the CEO. Their communication throughout the hiring process was speedy in comparison. That is where the good things end. During the duration of my interview with CEO she repeatedly used the F word, and was yelling at her dog on the phone. Very weird, off putting, and unprofessional for a CEO. This should have been the first red flag. Second red flag would have been agreeing to meet with me in person to show me a job site, but then when followed up she began saying how everything was a mess and that we were not going to be meeting that week- after she flew in from Florida. This was my final interview. I was then offered a job with no in person interview. The offer was low, below what was advertised on their initial job board posting. When I emailed a counter offer back, which included research and cited the BLS that their salary offer was nearly 14k-20k below median they said that they did their own extensive research and would not be offering any more money. Okay, fine. Times are tough and this seems like a relatively new company. I was still committed at this point. The entire time I am emailing the CEO. I inform her that my wife is very pregnant, nearing the end of the pregnancy- her due date in in merely days at this point. I asked if there was something we could both do to get me one unpaid week at home with my recovering wife. Whether that looked like I started the job next week and had a week off after the birth, or pushed back to the start to the first of the next month to accommodate the nearing due date- all unpaid. Instead of offering a solution or troubleshooting this together, the very next email was that they were rescinding the job offer and wanted to go in a different direction after all. This is an of discriminatory failure to hire due to pregnancy. The offer letter was signed by myself and the CEO prior to this interaction.
