Counter
Offers...
Some reasons why it is
rarely advisable to accept a
counter-offer when seeking
new employment:
The same circumstances that
now cause you to consider a
job change will almost
always repeat themselves in
the future, even if you
accept a counteroffer.
Statistics compiled by the
National Employment
Association confirm that
over 80% of those people who
accept a counteroffer are
no longer with that company six to
twelve months later.
You should not have to
threaten to resign before a
company will give you what
you are worth.
You have now made your
employer aware that you are
unhappy. Long-term,
loyalty issues could arise.
Where is the money for the
counteroffer coming from?
Is it your next raise,
early?
When promotion time comes
around, your employer may
remember who was loyal and
who was not.
When times get tough, your
employer may begin the
cutback with you. Never seek a new job just to
get a raise or promotion
from your current employer.
It backfires almost every time.
When you have
decided to leave your
current employer, just do
it.
