- Helósztok, kaptam egy elég jó ajánlatot, hajlok rá, hogy elfogadjam, mert karrier és pénz ügyben is előrelépés, itt meg csak a tökölés megy, csak gondoltam, szólok, ha akartok beszélgetni (= gennyes módon megnövelni a fizetésemet meg upgrade-elni a pozíciómat, csak maradjak). - Jaj, Olga, hát mi nagyon sajnálnánk, nagyon tehetségesnek tartunk, és igazán látjuk neked a megfelelő pozíciót meg minden, kicsi türelmedet kérjük, hogy elő tudjunk jönni egy megfelelő ellenajánlattal, csak egyeztetünk a CEO-val, meg a pápával, meg az Istennel. - Hát jó, de siessetek, légyszi.

- Na, Olga, hát el kell, hogy mondjuk, hogy mindenki nagyon szupportív volt, a CEO, a pápa meg az Isten is szeretné, hogy maradj, és része legyél a csapatnak, úgyhogy itt is van az ajánlatunk számodra, amivel nagyon itt akarunk tartani. Amint látod, semmivel nem lenne felelősségteljesebb a pozíciód, a pénzt meg bele se írtuk, mert természetesen a fizetésed is ugyanannyi maradna, hiszen nem kéne semmi olyat csinálnod, amit eddig nem csináltál. Mérlegeld nyugodtan, tudjuk, hogy ez nem könnyű döntés.

You should talk ask to talk to a few people that work in the new company before you decide. If they are recruiting you, they should let you talk to some people there, ideally people you would be working with. Ask them lots of questions about the culture there. 

Then you should always give your current job the opportunity to match the money. Especially since they have been good to you, and it sounds like you’d stay except for the money. Don’t be squeamish or feel guilty about it. This is the business. It is very common (in all jobs, not just art) that you don’t get a big raise unless you have another offer to leverage. It’s part of the game.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Frigid negotiations between the White House and Senate Democrats appear to be thawing, with the Trump administration submitting what it calls a “serious” offer to reopen the government. “Yesterday, the White House made another serious counteroffer,” a White House official told Fox News Digital. “Democrats need to make a move to end the shutdown before…

What is a counteroffer? 

A counteroffer is made to an employee who has received a job offer from another company in an effort to persuade that employee to remain with their current organization. While counteroffers have traditionally focused on salary increases, more recent versions include additional incentives such as promotion opportunities, improved work life balance,  and commitments to a more inclusive workplace culture. Although these offers may appear appealing, accepting a counteroffer often leads to long term consequences that affect both professional growth and personal reputation. This post argues that it is ultimately not in a candidate’s best interest to accept a counteroffer.

Professional Consequences

Accepting a counteroffer may appear to solve short term frustrations, but it rarely addresses the deeper issues that caused an employee to consider leaving in the first place. In many cases, doing so can actually harm one’s career trajectory and professional reputation.

Studies show that more than 55 percent of employees who accept counteroffers report increased dissatisfaction and decreased commitment afterward (Chen and White, 2018). Moreover, data indicates that compensation is not the main reason senior employees choose to leave their roles. Instead, most departures are driven by a desire for professional development, growth and/or a lack of staffing resources.

The Golden State Warriors and Jonathan Kuminga remain locked in a contract stalemate as new details of the forward’s counter-offer have emerged. According to ESPN’s Shams Charania and Anthony Slater, Kuminga’s camp recently proposed a one-year “bridge” deal designed as a souped-up version of the qualifying offer. The structure would give him a financial bump […] The post Jonathan Kuminga’s…

My first two weeks and the reason I chose not to counteroffer my first employee who moved on.

THE SETUP When I took over my team, I walked into a group that was very unhappy with its current direction. They felt that the work did not benefit or align with the companies’ initiatives, that the leadership team didn’t listen to them and their concerns, and that they were being worked thin across several different initiatives, many of which never made their way out of initial planning…

Design Blog Post - How to Respond to Counter Offers in 2023

The first couple of months of the year are a popular time for people to move on to new opportunities in their career. Many take the time over Christmas to appraise their lives and whether or not their current workplace is offering creative and financial satisfaction. They see a new year as a new page in their own personal story and the ideal time to search for a higher-paying position at another firm. Last year, we talked about handing in your notice and, in particular, what you should do if your current employer makes a counter-offer once you hand in your notice.
