Getting counter offer at Intel
I got an offer with 30% more on base salary from a large tech company working remotely. I am very happy with my team and my manager is awesome which is rare at Intel. Does intel counter offer to make me stay? Would that be good long-term? Is getting re-hired easy/possible? (if things didn’t work well for remote work with the other company) Any advice?
Most managers won't counter because they know they're just buying time before you eventually leave. Your only option is to find a tactful way to use this offer to negotiate your current comp. Express that you don't intend to take the offer but you know you're underpaid/undervalued and want to be valued at current market rates.
You better be prepare to exit your Intel job if you are going to ask for a counter. Also, think about whether if you are someone that the team needs and cannot function without? From my experience anyone is disposable. You can get the boot immediately when you raise the question for counter.
Intel will likely not counter unless you are G8+ On the flip side, Intel re-welcomes, re-re-welcomes, and re-re-re-welcomes previous employees all the time. The hard rule is: there is no real limit to Intel taking you back if you have good notes from previous employment. Long term: Absolutely best to move on. You are at your best when you need to learn quickly and solve unique, new problems.
U mean focal reviews and the new insights?
By the returning from previous Intel employment, yes that would be everything in focal - but also exit justification documents and whether you signed the NDA. If you want to return, you need to sign it (AFAIK)
Limited counter. Only by hr. And it won’t be 30%. Lol. Never seen this work out. But you can come home. You will come home. You won’t cut it out there
Yes, Intel will do a counter offer. With other companies, I would hesitate due to risks later. But with Intel, this is a great opportunity to bump your pay(even grade) significantly, and you can transfer to different internal team if you want(keeping the nice bump). Due to attrition and limited external reqs, your risk is almost zero(of getting fired/pip) in asking for Intel to match. Do it.
Hi CKQH35.. what did you end up going? In a similar situation so asking
General advice is don’t take counter unless you’re sure the current manager won’t screw you later
