If you have already started interviewing and have received offer, I’d say take the best one and move on. You are burned out in your current - whatever the outcome of the meeting is, that won’t change.
50k above what you make right now is no brainer, anyway.
That’s fair. But in my experience, counter offers rarely work. You started looking for another role for a reason. What’s the guarantee that those reasons won’t persist, say, 6 months after whatever promises the C suite makes?
At SM1.. that is a very good insight.
Update - had a promising conversation with the CFO. They wanted to create a new role for me & I had a couple discussions with what would be my new manager. Offer was a 6.6% increase in pay with a 6.2% bonus at the end of the transition. I said I would take a few days to consider, but I think my decision was made easy considering I said my market rate was 51%-61% above current pay prior to the offer.
