Some of you have been following this story. I accepted a job, then immediately got a huge raise and package to keep me at my current job. I called the other people back and explained that I am sorry, it's unprofessional, I know it puts them in a tough spot, blah blah, but that I can't pass up what my current employer is offering me.

They were like, "I can't believe you'd do this to us." I tried to explain more, but they were totally silent, then just said, "OK. Goodbye."

Not even one iota of trying to be professional or even fake "well, this sucks for us, but I understand, goodluck."

Part of me feels like total shit. Not only for hurting them but also now I have an industry enemy.

Part of me feels happy I am not working for people that get so angry and emotional when they really should remember it's fucking at-will employment and shit happens. I can't be the first, or last person, to have a CEO step in and want to keep me.

informing your current employer after you accept transfers the risk to your new employer, informing before puts the risk on you. only an idiot chooses the latter.

I can think of at least two instances in the high-paying in house job category where an offer was pulled. The company doesn't need the role anymore, an internal candidate emerges and they want to save $$$, you name it. Everything should be signed/sealed/delivered before notice is given.

1) receive offer

2) talk to employer

3)

i) if employer matches -> decline offer

ii) if employer does not match

a) if offer still in place -> accept offer then resign

b) if offer not still in place -> do not resign

but yes slightly more risky

I simultaneously "accepted" the offer and used the offer letter with my current employer when they said, voluntarily, "anything we can do to keep you?"

so they used that offer letter as proof of a market salary, then offered me a little more

Wrong! Just like an employer is estopped from claiming employment is at will when employee detrimentally relies on offer letter, start date, etc, same goes for the employee. A lot of employers don't bother and eat their losses but plenty more who feel slighted will absolutely go after the employee.

What you did wrong in this instance is that you should've allowed the new employer to counter and said "my employer gave me a substantial raise and I'd like to speak with you to see if you're interested in countering. Otherwise I'm inclined to stay at current employer since it's a difficult offer to refuse." By just saying, "I'm staying at current employer," you closed off the option for them to counter.

But honestly don't feel bad, you're not the first or last person to renege on an offer and they will fuck you in an instant so you should only worry about yourself. Also if they wanted you enough, they would've at least asked what the offer was and considered matching or exceeding it. Fuck them.

If they wanted to make an offer, they'd have said, "can we make an offer?" all I said was "I really don't think I can turn down what my CEO is offering"

but yes, thank you, they'd fuck me at a moment's notice and I am so ir8 that these people think I owe them shit ... we're at will employees and if you're talented, OF COURSE the fucking current company is going to try and keep me, so they need to build that into their hiring decisions ... e.g. don't assume someone is starting until they actually start

I just hope they dont try to fuck me over in the future somehow

I'm still ir8 at this employer; how fucking dare they act like children when I am acting like the adult about AT WILL EMPLOYMENT

If you're a good VP or whatever, you WAIT until I actually START, not two weeks out, to ding all the other applicants. You shouldn't assume SHIT even when I give the two weeks to a current employer. You should ASSUME that TALENT is going to have people trying to keep them. What fucking assholes. Like I intentionally went around trying to fuck them over. No. My CEO wants to keep me and made me an offer I had no idea was coming my way. Fuck these guys. I'm glad I don't work for them--they'd be real assholes when things go wrong, apparently.

why would you accept a counter-offer? enjoy your job until they find a replacement
