I think you don't want to work there, and you don't want to get involved in litigation.
You have been very circumspect in what you say has happened and when, and honestly, I don't think most of us want to hear more so don't elaborate, but there are two sides to each story.

Employers do not have a duty of disclosure or anything and you forcing things just makes you look petty and will be passed around employers and agencies, so I'd quit while I'm ahead.


My opinion is worth exactly what you paid for it ... nothing.


Best of luck on the job search.


Marcus

Sure. Will do - thanks.  Curious though, what do you all make of this
employer based on the thread?
