Everything the senior managers told me about working in industry...same thing every month, boring, slow....all way off. Find a good company and don’t believe that talk. So much happier

I don’t know. I worked in industry. It was awful. Great company but we had a huge department and the work was boring and redundant. Very few motivated colleagues

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.
