Is it always worth it to try to get a counter offer from your current firm? What if you get another offer while they’re countering a different one? Do you update with the new one?

For context, I’m at company A (big 4+)

Company B (WITCH) will extend an offer early next week

Company C is boutique with good WLB and reached out this past week and is my preferred if they expedite the process but no guarantees

So do I talk to my company A coach when the first offer from B comes in or do I wait it out for the potential offer from C?

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM. I come from a Big4 consulting firm with a background in Enterprise Performance. I’ll be honest and say I’m not feeling very safe in my current role with the ongoing layoffs. Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.

Hey! I am a Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) working at a private very busy internal medicine practice. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Interdisciplinary Medical Sciences and am working here during my two gap years before medical school. I feel as though I am being severely underpaid at $18 / hour despite having a bachelor degree in the relevant field and almost 2 years of experience as an MA. Anyone with a B.S. and an MA mind sharing what they are making or anyone have any tips? In FL.

I need some advise on my situation. I have 4 YOE and am currently at B4 in the Middle East making ~$70k (no tax). I’ll be getting promoted to manager in Oct (~90k). I applied for a role at a government owned company and was told the TC would be 140-155k. When I got the offer, they asked for my current salary and then only offered 127k. I’m standing firm by saying I want 147k, middle of the original range. How would you play this? Im an expat and don’t intend on being here forever.
