In this episode, we dive deep into the tricky world of counteroffers. Should an employer offer one to retain a resigning employee? And if you’re the employee, should you ever accept? The data and real-world experiences say no. We explore both sides of the coin—what happens when managers make counteroffers, and why employees often regret accepting them. Tune in to find out how counteroffers affect trust, morale, and long-term satisfaction, and why both employers and employees are better off avoiding them. If you’re navigating a resignation or trying to retain top talent, this episode is for you!
