What type of company do you work
for if you have to threaten to resign before they
give you what you are worth?
2.
Where is the money for the counter offer coming
from? Is it your next raise early? All companies
have strict wage and salary guidelines which must
be followed.
3.
Your company will immediately start looking
for a new person at a cheaper price.
4.
You now have made your employer aware that you
are unhappy. From this day on, your loyalty will
always be in question.
5.
When promotion time comes around, your employer
will remember who was loyal and who was not.
6.
When times get tough, your employer will begin
the cutback with you.
7.
The same circumstances that now cause you to
consider a change will repeat themselves in the
future; even if you accept a counteroffer.
8.
Statistics show that if you accept a counter
offer, the probability of voluntarily leaving
in six months or being let go within one year
is extremely high.
9.
Accepting a counter offer is an insult to your
intelligence and a blow to your personal pride;
knowing that you were bought.
10.
Once the word gets out, the relationship that
you now enjoy with your co-workers will never
be the same. You will lose the personal satisfaction
of peer group acceptance.
