Job interviews can offer plenty of indication regarding how different the new position is.
Article seems to have the same basic idea as https://xkcd.com/1768 https://xkcd.com/1768 - When in doubt it's better to leave.
- YjSe2GMQ 8y agoNot only XKCD's anecdotal evidence confirms it's good to change. A straight coin toss experiment says so too: https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2016/08/quitting-your-job-and-other-life-choices/495122/ https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2016/08/quittin...

- jshowa3 8y agoJob interviews often hide the following: 1) What the people are like 2) What the benefits are 3) What your bosses like 4) What the company culture is like Pretty much everything meaningful about a job is kept hidden because of the game of "you shouldn't look like your benefits shopping". I haven't gone to a single job interview where those were discussed before hiring at a non-superficial level (I've interviewed about 5-6 times in my professional career) And you're actively discouraged from asking these questions when learning about interviewing techniques.
