How long did you stick around after you presented the other offer?

How long did you stick around after you presented the other offer?
- maxxxxx 10y agoQuite a while. There were no negative consequences.
- ryandrake 10y agoWow, I can't imagine a place where playing the "I got an offer somewhere else" card wouldn't start a countdown clock on your career there.
- maxxxxx 10y agoDo you just think it's that way or do you have experience? I used to imagine management would take this personally but they generally don't. I wouldn't recommend doing this every few months though.
- ryandrake 10y agoAdmittedly no, I've never known anyone to do it but people tend to be pretty cagey about talking about salary and job hunting and that kind of stuff, so who knows? I also have never seen anyone poop on their manager's desk but can speculate about what would happen thereafter :-)
- maxxxxx 10y agoThey may take pooping on their desk personally so I would advice against that! Try asking for more money first. If that doesn't work then you can poop on their desk.
- bcbrown 10y agoHave you ever seen that happen? I find it hard to believe that it would start a countdown clock.
- sokoloff 10y agoMy experience as well, as both employee and as manager.
