I respect your PoV and I know lots of people who consider “big raise or leave” move unethical. Personally I think it is a negotiation and a financial transaction - I’m trading my time for my salary and I better make the most out of it. At the same time - from a negotiation perspective I find unlikely showing your hand in the way you describe is going to work in your favour. In practice, it also has the potential to backfire and you being branded as “disengaged” and a “flight risk”. PS: please note I’m saying this in good faith, don’t read my comment with a snarky/sarcastic conotation :)
