Further reference, the former company was paying me $55k but was slated to give me a market level raise at the end of June. What that raise would’ve been was unclear.

Two things: Negotiating after the fact isn’t a great look and might get your offer pulled. You can risk it and it may pay off, not worth it in my opinion. Second, as a general rule: Don’t take counteroffers. You’re leaving for a reason and it’s rarely *only* about money. You’ll likely feel the exact same way you’re feeling now after the new money wears off. Then, you’ll have a target on your back as they know you’re willing to jump ship, this can hurt your long term prospects there.

sk for the sakary need....its better to ask now

So you got an offer from a perspective employer and went to your existing employer to mention that you had the offer. They increased your salary by the offer and 10k. I would totally mention the fact that they increased your pay to the prospective employer. I would also mention that this changes things for you and you just want to be transparent. They can either increase their offer or recind the original offer. There's nothing unprofessional about getting what you're worth.

Personally, I don’t leave money on the table when it comes to salary. If the company provided a salary range, I feel strongly that they should give you the top end. If you’re more excited about the prospect of working at the new company. I’d leave the salary alone. You only hurt your relationship with the new company if you negotiate again. It can be intriguing to collect all the money, but managing relationships leads to more salary in my experience.

1. You feel underpaid for that role regardless.... 2. Common for companies to try and offer you more to stay. You need to decide if pay is why you are leaving or other reasons. 3. If you want to stay, just let your current employer that you were offered a similar role with more money but you would rather stay at the company for a list of reasons you provide. 4. I would avoid going back and forth to both companies. At any time new employer could withdraw offer and current employer could let go

You don’t get paid what you deserve, you ultimately get paid what you negotiate. You accepted an offer, and to go back and ask for us pretty aggressive and the relationship matters. Perhaps you can keep that offer in you back pocket and bring it up at your next review but don’t tell them it’s from your former employer - just say, “I got an offer for $10k more”. But you’ll have to weigh if it’s worth communicating to the current company that you’re willing to jump ship for $10k or $833/mo….

🎯 on your back.

You are well within your professional rights to negotiate. Do it

If you already signed the new offer, you should honor it. Once pen is put to paper, it's unprofessional to continue negotiating. That being said, going from $55K to $83K for the same role and responsibilities is merely confirmation that they were severely underpaying you in the first place, which means they don't respect your contributions regardless. Take the new job and prosper.

I’d keep the current offer, tbh. Flip-flopping is going to look bad for you, if either company feels disinclined to work with you further you could be left out in the cold without either offer on the table. Plus, you’re ready to leave Company A in the first place and better to leave on good terms/your own terms

NeVER take a counteroffer. They had plenty of time to give you that raise, but they didn't until you have another offer in hand. Plus, your old company is trying to make you burn a bridge with your new company. Hand in your notice and go.

If both jobs are fully remote, you can keep your current job and cut your hours spent at it while doing your new job and see if it's feasible for you

1. No, negotiate with all the cards you bring to the table. Maybe don’t say “Well my other company’s counter-offer is…” but leverage what you have in an intelligent way. 2. Remember, if something about a company caused you to look elsewhere, will a counter-offer fix that? I mean, unless the issue was money and money alone.

IDK if it’s unprofessional is the right way of thinking of it. They obviously won’t be impressed that they are being brought back to the negotiating table. I think whether are you comfortable with the risks associated with doing so, is what you should be asking yourself? (In the event they pull the offer on you) At the end of the day you can quit roles you don’t like & they can terminate your employment quite easily during ur probation period. So I wouldn’t worry about it being unfair on them.

This is almost a 20% difference, you have to raise it as it does change things for you, also having been at 55k your company should understand why you shopped offers, this is very normal in the big4, we use external offers as raise and bonus justifications all the time.

Don’t fall for the “professional “ or “unprofessional “ cliche. You go with the highest offer. You get pay for your services , that you work hard for. My rule of thumb, keep growing and expanding. Make you and your potential customer gets what both want or need. The employer is not your father nor mother. They work for the stock owners . You need to focus on your career and goals. Make sure you know the company, is growth, their mission or product or service that aligns with your life and goal

Why do you want to switch. Is it new opportunity or just salary increment? If it is salary increment, then more the better. But if there are other reasons you started to look for another job, then youight need to weigh your options.

They clearly have the money and have been under paying you severely to take advantage of you. My opinion, I would not stick around, you obviously were looking for a reason. The reason the counter offered so high is because they obviously need you and it’s cheaper for them to keep you and pay you more than it is to find, hire  and train someone new. Shit won’t change with them though. I would also make sure that you have more room to grow with the new company and training included.

You are getting more than you were getting and now you have a new number to move towards. When you have decided to leave a place and they make a wild counter offer, don't be fooled. Where was that appreciation while you were there? If they knew they could go that much higher, why not move closer before? If you have more money what factors will keep you feeling the same way before you left?
