The Great Depression was in the 1930s.

The 1920s (also known as the Roaring Twenties) was mainly known for the economic boom that followed World War I. The stock market crashed on Black Tuesday in 1929, which triggered the Great Depression period for the next 10 years.

I was offered a promotion but due to internal policies the max comp they could offer was way under market value. I countered and was denied. I took time to think about it, being disappointed I applied for other jobs. Monday came and I decided to accept the offer. A week before starting my new position I got a call for one of the jobs I applied for. I am now going through to the last round of interviews the same week I start my new position. Would it be bad practice to accept another offer now?

I generally ignore these requests but would love to hear pros and cons for both sides. Also if you get contacted by vendors, do you respond? Do you accept their invites?
