Well this is exactly what happened.

Based on what you said, it might be worth it for you to stay. Just know that you practically blackmailed them in to giving you what you want and they will keep an eye on you. I still wouldn't stay. I told my previous employer 20% wouldn't keep me.

I just read this. I think you should consider it.

quote:

Nicolai believes there are pros and cons to accepting a counteroffer, but she wouldn’t recommend it either. “If you have tried to resolve issues in the workplace; whether it’s more money, a new title, a better work schedule, or time off, and the situations was not resolved prior to putting in your two weeks’ notice, then the proposed counteroffer is being offered to benefit the employer.” If the employer were sincere, the proposed offer would have been made when you originally approached your boss with your concerns, she adds.
