I love working with gunners I let them do all my work for me

likefunnysmart

This person takes over everything before I have a chance

Are they more senior? Had one like that but we were pretty close in year. It felt like she was purposely hogging work and leaving me out to get the recognition from partners.

Let them do their gunner things. As long as they don't expect it of you. All is cool.

CC the partner on everything, including feedback. Gunners are not team players. They gum things up and tend to look for opportunities to make their team look bad.

Are they a gunner or an overachiever? Speaking an overachiever who doesn’t stab people in the back, you can offload work to them when needed.

I recently joined Swiss Re at 30lpa, pretty good manager and work culture. Got a hike of 10% in 3 months without me asking for it. But got an offer from another company which I was interviewing for before joining here and they are offering a base of 45lpa. Now I am unsure how I convey this to my manager coz I want to stay here but at the same time I am salivating over this new offer and wish I get similar numbers here. Is it worth raising a discussion? If yes what would be a subtle way to do so?
