I am working in high-sized organization with 50K employee as a software developer. I am working on very boring project. As I am happy with the project I started job hunt, I got new offer with around 50% raise with some other high-sized.
Yesterday I resigned from my role stating primary reason as I was not happy with the work and money is secondary reason.
Due to company policy my existing employer cannot counter the offer. However, my manager has offered me a role in some exiciting project.
What could go wrong if I stay? will I always be perceived as someone who could abandon the ship? or should I take the new offer?
[Edit]
30-50 % is an average hike in the country where I work.
To answer "Why would I want to raise after receiving the signigact offer?" I like the people with whom I work.
