Just recently switched to industry, and I can confirm that the “culture” consulting firms spew is all BS. Culture is created by your immediate team, it’s pretty hard to have a consistent company-wide culture. My new company is known to be intense but my team is nothing but fantastic, and I make more money and have much better WLB than I could’ve hoped for. It’s a world of opportunity out there, just gotta seize it.

Companies do not have culture. People do. The concept of a company culture is one of the biggest myths in today’s working environment. Does anyone believe that leadership at any organization stands up and says, “we don’t want to be ethical”, or “we hate collaboration”? They all preach the same things. But it’s up to the people that you work with to execute.

Okay soooo I have an adult 8 year old Maltese. I have tried everything from Farmers dog to Caesar. Mixing wet and dry...putting toppers on. I kinda got him to eat out of my hand. But I have to put bland chicken on top just to get him to come near it. I have tried the leave food down for 20 minutes then pick it up....he just won't eat. I'm gonna try Pet Plate subscription to see if that works. Hopefully it does.

Any pet owners have any suggestions. I'm a newbie. I've only had my Ben since May.

I cleared the technical interview in LTI.

Just trying to understand if they will release the offer.
