That’s literally the best time to leave. Some people will say anything to retain folks.

I'd think it annoys people who lobbied for your promotion.

It happens often enough but if someone uses your free labor for a title change, then leaves you hanging, would you be disappointed?

Definitely leave for the right opportunity, at the same time the best exits are usually one year into a new role. Senior 2, manager 2, etc

Maybe the promo wasn’t lucrative enough if the person left for an outside offer. Try again with more money.

Looking for advice - I am a senior accountant with 3 years experience and a CPA license. My colleague was recently promoted to senior and offered 10k over what I am currently making. Boss says that he can match that but not until our annual review in September. The colleague was offered an outside opportunity and this raise/promotion was to keep him. I don’t see why I should have to wait 3 months to be considered for a raise. Also believe that I should ask for more since colleague has no CPA…
