Distinguishing between the correct prepositions

Bonjour Madame Cécile !

A sentence mentions-

La compagnie pour laquelle je travaille a les meilleurs résultats du secteur.The company for which I work has the best results in the industry.

I would like to ask whether “dans laquelle” is also acceptable ?

Also if a sentence is given-

L’automne est la saison .................... les feuilles jaunissent. 

I came up with the following options-

pendant laquelle/ dans laquelle/ en laquelle 

Which of the above is grammatically accurate?

Je vous remercierais pour votre réponse.

Bonjour Shrey!

1. On travaille pour une compagnie/société/entreprise

2. you could say -

....saison pendant /dans laquelle..... 

The difference being as in English between during which/ in which .

( en laquelle is incorrect) 

Hope this helps!
