Y’all! I accepted my company’s counter offer but then the company I was going to decline ended up countering my company’s counter… Should I relay this to my manager to see if they will increase my comp or should I just go with the other company?

Uhm. Just go with the other company. You can’t just keep bouncing back and forth to keep getting counteroffers lol

Think long and hard about how current company will treat you now that they know you’re a flight risk.

That’s been in the back of my mind ever since I gave notice but they begged me to stay. I feel like I’d be such a dick to change my mind weeks later 😣

You were looking for a new job for a reason - which job will actually be what you want aside from comp?

like

Agree. Unless the only reason OP was looking elsewhere was money…but even still…if you have to quit to get it, do you really want to be there?

which do you prefer ? If you accepted one counter, I don’t see a reason to not ask for a second [no guarantee you’ll get a second]. I don’t see how either scenario is a bad option.

I think this speaks to what a free-for-all the job market is now.

Free-for-all is an understatement. It’s a candidate’s market right now and idk if I’ll ever see anything like this again in my lifetime. I just don’t want there to be bad blood 😫😫😫

You had to go looking for a reason.

I didn’t expect the new company to counter. I feel weird because I already accepted my company’s offer which includes an increase and new responsibilities.

Other company

Why did you want to leave initially? Those reasons don’t just go away, unless it was only money. Also, old job can promise the world but do you believe them?

Go with the other company.

Leave - it’s better for you and your old company

I gained weight during my last relationship (probably around 30 lbs, and I’m 5’9”). Before my relationship, I felt like I could get any guy. But I’ve been single for 2 years now and it’s been so hard to date. I’m not sure if maybe I’ve lost confidence, but I legitimately don’t know how to get a guy to be interested. Any pointers?

My Senior Manager quit on us a couple of months ago, now my manager just did as well yesterday.

I'm in a small firm, where there is no one with tenure anymore. The new Senior Manager just started and does not know the clients either.

Last busy season was hell because we were short staffed (only 3 of us), and I fear that next one will be even worse because we are in a market where we do not have a ton of people we could hire.

This feels like a new job and I'm not liking it at all.
