Will they try hard to convince you to say, throw offers at you that make you wonder if you're doing the right thing? Are those offers REAL or just a cover to keep you on a few extra weeks and then can you because your bosses are pricks?
I've had jobs offer me more, when I quit. In a polite way, I told them it was kinda insulting that you didn't offer it to me before, since you knew I deserved more. This I think will get me annoyed the most during transition time.
I had this happen to me recently. "
ou're doing great work and we'd like to give you a raise, but things are too tight right now, sorry." After several reviews of hearing that, this last time I told them that I was quitting. He immediately started talking about how "Don't do that, we can work something out, let me talk to my boss." I told him not to bother because I didn't want to work for someone who only gave raises to employees that threatened to quit. I even got a call from his boss the following day offering me a raise, but I refused and told him that he needed to learn to treat his employees better.
A lot of managers have taken advantage of the economic situation to really put the screws to their employees. As we (slowly) dig our way out, all that pent up frustration from employees is going to bite them in the ass. As more and more opportunities open up, employees are going to bolt for greener pastures.
