The only thing ever certain in a counter offer is money. The rest is all window dressing, that is of course unless they specifically write it in your contract.

Yes and I agreed to 2 weeks off to think about it. Came back and it's like they didn't even hear me. After 3 days back I told them I was done.

Yes and I sorely regretted it . I listened to the song and dance at my prior firm for more than a year. Their actions never matched their words. In the end it was a bitter parting. I wish i would have just left in the first place. YMMV, of course.

It should never have to come down for forcing their hand or you leaving for change to happen.

I didn't turn in a notice originally, but I did express extreme displeasure to my PML and BUPIC and told them that I planned to look elsewhere internally and externally. They offered to assist with finding a better role internally.

About three months later they came back with the standard "corporate extortion" of if you commit to work through Busy Season, we will see what can be arranged once the next fiscal year starts. Both were surprised when I said, "Too late!" and turned in my notice the next morning as I had planned to do anyway.

Exhaustion and Negativity are not the only symptoms of Burnout. Lacking motivation is also a major symptom.

A majority of society tends to stick around to things because they are influenced by "enough" people doing something similar. Hence, they start living someone else's life instead of theirs.

Think about what you want for yourself, what's important, what you value. Then, ask yourself. Do I have these things? Am I living by the things that are important to me?
