I just declined an offer. They have been on calls with me for a month begging me to join (but the position has only 20k salary hike). I’m staying in D as I see myself some potential here even though I only got 3000 salary increase. I hope I’m making a good decision 😫

I think you made the wrong call, you won’t get $20k extra from D for at least 3 years

$20k is a good hike. In today’s market, expecting significant hikes may not be the best strategy. This also depends on what level you currently are at.....

Take it for what it is but you are likely more loyal to your firm than it is to you - did you try to ask your current firm to at least match?!?

At this point, if the other offer is gone you need to forget about it. Don’t think “what if” and just move on with your decision to stay or find a better offer that will make you actually jump.

Actually the reason I provided is “visa related” so I can still act and try to get the offer. Should I really really leave D?

OP- I spent 5 great years asking myself this. My answer is: you will know what it is time to leave. If leadership likes you and you are happy, stay.

Not to be mean but you’re dumb. Not sure what makes you believe so much in the firm that you think you can easily achieve that salary hike soon and be happy at the firm.

I understand where you’re coming from and I definitely did come off as lacking empathy. However, when I re-read the post it gave me a feeling that this either wasn’t a legitimate concern or the OP was half-joking towards the end. Loyalty to a firm or company is good IF both sides reap benefits and there’s equal respect and performance acknowledgment. I don’t see that here.

Regardless, everyone has an opinion and OP was seeking that.

If I was earning 100k and was offered a 20k hike I’d go. The higher the base the less attractive the 20k

I am interviewing for a new IT Manager position. I started putting out soft feelers and then hit the hunt harder. The problem: I have one offer and need to give an answer by next Wednesday. I have two other opportunities that are in final steps but probably won’t have offers by next Wednesday. Both of the other offers will be higher pay but clearly are uncertain for offers. Do I accept the offer I have, which is a good one or wait for the other two to finalize and possibly miss out altogether?
