You should know the answer to this question; no one can answer this for you.
There is a number of factors; you happy you stay, more money, you stay. You see potential elsewhere, don’t stay, etc.
A recruiter I've worked with for years always says not to accept counteroffers from your current employer. If they could pay you more and believed you were worth it, they would already be paying it.
I think this varies. Firms want profit. If you are willing to accept less, most will let you keep making that. I was going to leave (for money) and stayed because they countered and I’ve been able to double my salary over the years. Sometimes you have to go for what you want/deserve and just have that convo.
Thank you all for your input. I appreciate it. I was leaving for career growth which my current employer is offering. It’s discouraging that you have to resign before you feel valued.
If you were truly valued, they would've offered it before you threatened to leave. I've never taken a counter and always do well by moving on. I have yet to meet someone who has taken it, and things have gone well.
Agreed with the comments above. It wouldn’t depend on why you were leaving.
I resigned in March 2021 to go to a bigger firm but my firm countered with money and promises to keep me. They mostly came through on the promises made except for a few. Fast forward 18 months and I resigned again for similar reasons. They again countered and asked what they could do to keep me. I said it was time for me to move on and haven’t looked back.
I wish nothing but the best for you.
I've resigned and stayed for a counter twice in my career. Both times I ended up leaving a year later. The reason you were interviewing may be salary, but I find it rarely is only salary, it's just hard to pinpoint until that becomes a non- issue.
I was too comfortable!
If I resigned for a reason, no.
If I resigned but the purpose was money, maybe.
No, do not accept it. There’s a reason why you started looking.
Nope. Unless you’re leaving because of pay. The firm isn’t going to change its dynamics or toxicity.
No way. I despise the current dynamics of my firm, the partners I work with, and the billable hours.
Depending on what the counter offer is...and how do you like the work and the place you work.
Nope. If they wanted to they would have.
I work for a very small Plaintiff's PI firm. I resigned after a year due to low salary, bad health insurance, and a horrible coworker. (Took the job originally because I liked the practice generally and needed a job.) They met my salary demand, switched our health insurance, and fired the coworker. You really do need to ask for what you want. They were never going to change any of the things I asked for without my asking even though they valued me and my work.
I love this for you!! But so true. Sometimes it really takes a convo. If only that were the norm with most firms.
Mine countered/matched it. I didn’t stay, but I came back six months later and was given the match. Sometimes you just have to try out something else to know it’s not for you.
No
That would depend on the working relationship and environment.
There’s about a thousand personal considerations here, how could we possibly answer this for you?
