Overheard a guy at Lowes say drywall mud is all the same

Was grabbing supplies for a bathroom reno this morning and heard this dude tell his friend that any brand of joint compound works fine. I've been using Sheetrock brand for 10 years and tried a cheap store brand once. That stuff took twice as long to sand and left bubbles everywhere. Has anyone else found a huge difference between brands?

Oh man, hard disagree. Cheap mud is a nightmare, that stuff is pure misery to sand.
