Flexport's CEO Ryan Petersen said on X that it's rescinding dozens of job offers.
Recruiters point out that rescinding job offers is not uncommon – and not illegal.
Roman later told Insider that Flexport's decision might also set a new precedent for how people think about job offers.
He also noted that rescinded offers have been among the "most challenging" situations he's had to deal with in his professional life.
In June 2022, cryptocurrency platform Coinbase rescinded job offers via mass emails — a decision that at least one recipient denounced as "unprofessional."
