Engineering Graduate's 35 LPA Job Offer Withdrawn Days Before Internship End
A 2026 engineering graduate from a tier 1.5 college shared on Reddit how a promised 35 LPA pre-placement offer (PPO) was withdrawn just two days before their six-month internship ended. Despite positive feedback and assurances from their manager, the company canceled PPOs for all 90 interns, citing a shift in focus to AI projects. The graduate, removed from other campus placements, now faces limited options with a 6.5 LPA backup offer and difficulty securing interviews in a challenging job market.
