You're not required to tell them shit.

But in my industry, leaving to go to a competitor causes :triggered: so I was forthcoming about it.

You didn't sign a non-compete clause when you went to work for the General did you?

Yeah, I'm slightly concerned about this... Don't want any bridges to burn, this industry is way too small...
I would suspect you're fine. People tend to be pretty fluid in FS.
Thanks Bendy!

Negotiated slightly higher pay and bonus, along with a company supplied phone and computer.
No equity offered.
I'll probably take it and keep looking. Found some really interesting stuff yesterday that's in Philly and out of the energy/oil industry.

Right. Its more than I made previously. If bonuses pay out well, it'll be significantly more. I only plan on this being a 1 year thing. Not overly excited to do it but it's a half decent job with good pay and is a stop gap.

No harm in taking the job and continuing your search.

fiscal year raises are out for us. info is trickling out. I got a little bit, which puts me squarely were I expect to be. Nothing more, nothing less. So its :notbad: over all but if this trend continues of general zero raise and finger wagging, the future isnt bright at this location. The industry is doing to well as a hole to not chase money.

I do feel an opportunity to build into something decent with this company, as long as we arent continually shunned as a step-child group
