Infosys Offered Him 7.5 Lakh. He Already Had 14.

A software engineer on r/developersIndia cleared two interview rounds at Infosys while already holding a Rs 14 LPA offer from another firm. The Infosys recruiter came back with Rs 7.5 LPA. When the candidate questioned the gap, HR's response was three words: "It is what it is." He accepted the offer letter anyway, waited two weeks for it to arrive, then formally rejected it — citing the low remuneration. Reddit split its verdict between "satisfying revenge" and "risky professional move," but agreed on one thing: lowballing a candidate who's already proven their market value is a recruiting own goal.
