Can someone explain soldier levelling up?

I dont get it, I just randomly get perks while levelling up soldiers without rhyme nor reason, and I mean the ones I got here arent too bad, but I have to spend money all the time to reset perks and etc because of it.

Like you can clearly see I didnt pick there perks because I somehow got 5 star perks while not 5 stars.

It’s probably a legacy soldier that got messed up with their perk/lvl rework

Yup, soldiers get random perks for no reason when leveling, this one of the many problems in the game…

Same thing applies when you unlock an event squad for instance

Nah its a new engineer I was levelling up in a sniper 2 squad.

Yeah I knew that event squads just have random perks, but somehow only clicked that it also happens to new soldiers as you level them up.
