A company offered you a new job with a 25% pay rise and you kept them waiting for two weeks? Sounds fishy.
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoIt makes sense because leaving a job you're actually happy with is a big step to take, especially if said job may choose to match or go beyond the other job's offer.
- bluGill 5y agoJust leave. I've seen more than one senior engineer given a raise, then the.company extracted their knowledge and laid them off in the next downturn when it was harder to find any job.
- sirwhinesalot 5y agoIs it that surprising? Colleague of mine rejected a 50% pay rise at another company because the commute would be too annoying. He then took it when the next company offered full remote. Another colleague of mine is struggling to pick between all the companies offering him almost double his current salary. That's the market right now.
- secondcoming 5y agoIt's surprising to me that OP made them wait two weeks.
- sirwhinesalot 5y agoWhen you're getting showered with options, 2 weeks is low. We tried to hire a guy who told us he'd only give us an answer more than month later.
