Student Loses Job Over Salary Query
A student got a job offer through his college, but the salary in the final offer letter was less than what was promised.
He asked the company about this difference.
The company took back the job offer and said he should have asked the college first.
The college also said he couldn't join any other companies through them.
Many people on the internet think the company and the college were wrong and the student did nothing bad.
A student received a job offer with a salary of 3 LPA, but the job description promised 3.5 LPA.
The student questioned the discrepancy via email to HR, and the company rescinded the offer.
The company cited 'unprofessional behavior' for not contacting the placement cell first.
The college debarred the student from future placement opportunities.
Social media users largely supported the student, criticizing both the company and the college.
