Re: Counter Offers
The graphic design company I got my first job at upped my hourly rate four dollars and gave me instant vacation as well (you previously had to earn it). They knew I hated being their workhorse because I was the first person ever to work there with an actual design degree. It was just coincidence that their profits tripled to record highs while I was there and they had to release two part-timers after I finally left.
Not saying I was awesome (I obviously wasn't, because I hated that job and do computer stuff now) but I AM saying that the management of that place should have spent more money on getting GOOD talent than paying just above minimum wage to the other crappy designers who had been there for fifteen plus years.
