I'm currently serving a 3-month notice, of which 1 month has been completed. My boss wants me to withdraw my resignation, and he promised to offer a 25 percent increment by the end of the second month to convince me to stay. However, I am still exploring opportunities outside as I am skeptical about his promise; he might be looking for my replacement during this period.

Trust is the vital factor in employment relationships. Is less pay the only reason to quit? Is your boss the final authority to increase pay and accept resignations? Jobs are scarce; have you received any concrete offers so far? Make decisions carefully and do not change your mind simply for a pay increase alone. Growth, learning, and work atmosphere matter a lot.

Dear colleague,
In my view, his written offer and your resignation withdrawal letter have to be at the same time. Please request your boss to provide you with a written offer within a week's time. If the offer is acceptable, you can then withdraw your resignation.

Before withdrawing your resignation, please think with a calm mind as to why you have tendered your resignation, as Shri Natharao said, "Growth, learning, and work atmosphere matter a lot." One more thing I want to add is TRUST in your company and its management.

Hi Nath Rao,
Less pay is one of the reasons. Besides, there is a slash of jobs in the company. But I'm sure they can't lay me off as there are 3 members required in the team, and I'm the only one in the team.
Is your boss the final authority to increase pay and accept resignations? Yes. Are there any concrete job offers received so far? Only one offer, but the location is far from the town where my family resides.
Take careful decisions and do not change your mind simply for a pay increase alone. Growth, learning, and work atmosphere matter a lot.

Hi Friend,
You have to make a final decision, as your boss is trying to retain you because you have proven to be good at your work. If you still feel that your career growth is hindered, then you should search for a better job that guarantees growth and job security. However, make sure that you place yourself in a positive environment in the new organization.
Wishing you all the best.

Dear All,
Recently, I heard a case about one of my friends who joined an Educational Institution in the Placement Department with a very low salary compared to his industry pay. Over time, he performed exceptionally well and received another job offer in a different city. When he submitted his resignation, his Reporting Manager (referred to as the Executive Director, more in name than influence) promised a salary revision and promotion during the next appraisal.
However, a year passed, and during the appraisal, he discovered only a minor increase of 3K per month. Despite his attempts to discuss Compensation and Benefits (C&B) Policy and Re-fitment models, he was unable to achieve the desired outcome. He was surprised to learn that the institution was managed by individuals with an old-fashioned, dictatorial approach reminiscent of sole proprietor concerns, devoid of logic. Any questioning or suggestions were met with immediate dismissal from the organization.
Taking a stand, he confronted the Management, returned the money, fully aware of the potential consequences. This incident underscores the importance of evaluating whether a Reporting Manager possesses the necessary authority or influencing capabilities to prevent future disappointments.
In such scenarios, it is essential to ascertain the Reporting Manager's influence and decision-making power to avoid similar situations in the future.
