I asked ChatGPT to write its thoughts about Ad Agencies from other industry's perspectives and this is what I got: "Ad agencies, listen up: your buzzwords are stale, your leadership’s a joke, and your neon beanbag playground isn’t impressing anyone anymore.

Conflict of interest.
Can a company find out if you start to work for another company? Also, is it really a conflict of interest if you work for both companies in the same position, but the companies are in a different field (e.g. pharmaceutical and social media)?

I currently make 78k at Lockheed but I’m not doing what I’d like to be doing and i felt stuck and after many conversations with my manager and no solution in sight, I started applying elsewhere.
