Should I consider the counteroffer?

by tennesseetuxedo . Updated 22 years, 9 months ago

Okay, tell me what y’all think. I’ve been with this company for 3 years running their IT department – decent place to work, good benefits, they’ve had some problems paying what we’re worth and until this year hadn’t given raises in about 4-5 years. There are some shady people in upper management but it’s a pretty stable company. Anyway, I just resigned for two reasons, I work under the shadiest character in the company (the CFO – who is the boss of the CIO – my boss) and the CFO has made the lives of me, my boss and my team mates a living h*ll for the past two years; second, the career change is a slightly different direction with a nice pay increase.

Now I get a call from one of the executive officers of the company at HOME and he’s asking me about reconsidering and says there’s a meeting planned in the next few days with the CIO, president, VP of HR and the Executive VP to discuss me and the goal is to get me to not leave. I’ve already accepted the other job and would feel pretty lame about backing out after doing that. I guess I’m uncertain about which way to go….give me some thoughts!!!
