I was in the employee position, and I refused for two reasons:
- First, I did not want to leave only because of the money.
- Second, if an employer thinks they can manipulate me with money, then the relation is toxic. What is the message : Is that an acknowledgment that they have underpaid me until now ? Or does it mean that their first thought about good relationship is that it increases with money ?
Honestly, I never looked back and never had regrets for leaving.

Then, every situation is different.
