Has a firm ever just let someone go when an employee presented a job offer to them that they were trying to leverage for more pay?

There’s a risk; I think it breaks down trust and builds resentment. In a best case scenario, you may even feel resentment that your employer was okay underpaying you for all that time. It might be better to just leave.

I hope so

I think this probably happened to my former coach very early on in my career. From what I understand he went in with a counteroffer from a competitor and it was clear he was going to take it so he was let go that day.

I don't really know how this would work. When you go in with an offer you are inherently suggesting that you want more money or you are going to leave.

There is a risk but haven’t heard this happen.

If this is the route you go, be prepared to leave.

In 7 years I’ve only seen this happen once and to a guy who was one his way out anyway. Multipurpose ppmds openly hated him and cut him out of more and more work. When he told his ppmd of the offer they said your services aren’t needed anymore. Today is your last day. Bye.

Definitely took the wrong job. I was offered a seriously competitive salary and great benefits to work at a well funded startup, which is great! Turns out the salary and benefits were meant as lowkey bribes to insure I worked at the company without actually doing any work. Every single suggestion I've made has been shut down and I've been ghosted for several meetings with the CEO. What should I do? Just leave?
