Counter Offers – Don’t even go there….
And you thought the job search was hard. Once you turn in your resignation, the pressure to stay can be tremendous. Your mentor, your colleagues, your boss and your boss’s boss all want to know why you’d want to leave them. Your current company might counteroffer with all kinds of things–more money, better title, they’ll do anything to fix whatever it is that’s causing you to go. After all, they were caught by suprise. They don’t have anyone ready to replace you and the cost and effort to find someone else will be significant. (Jeff Altman has a great article covering counteroffers.) Whatever you do, don’t cave in. Executive Directions also has an important-to-read-article that points out that nearly 90% of people who accept counteroffers wind up leaving either voluntarily or involuntarily within 6 months. The circumstances won’t change, no matter what they promise you, and now that you’ve let them know you’re unhappy, you could be just a gap-filler until they can fire you.
