hated for taking too long to accept a FT offer?

I did an internship at a BB summer 2017, was a top performer, and received a FT offer. They wanted me to reply within 2 weeks. When I asked to extend it to my school's policy deadline, they (both HR and the team) weren't pleased and really pressed for why I needed to take time. I answered truthfully that I wanted to explore other nonfinance options. In the end I accepted the offer the day before the deadline. Since then no one's reached out to me to congratulate, whereas 2 different people reached out to me after I accepted my internship offer. They even sent an electronic Christmas card that year, but I didnt receive one this past winter. Now that my start date is approaching, i'm getting paranoid that they hate me and disfavor me from the start. I'm afraid they'll give me a low bonus out of resentment despite how well I perform. How likely do you think this will happen? what should I do in this situation?

after a few months, this will have most likely been forgotten...i would suggest you don't mention it, and expect they will not either. There is a 99% likelihood that your actual work will determine your bonus and how you are treated. I suggest going in with a positive attitude.

just google it...you're welcome
