You sit down with your boss to tell her you』ve been offered a job elsewhere and that you』ll be leaving the company in a few weeks. It will probably be an awkward conversation, and it』ll become even more uncomfortable when she asks you to stay. She might offer you better incentives, like more money or a job promotion–but as enticing as the counteroffer may be, career experts say you shouldn’t accept.
你坐在老闆面前，告訴他另外有家公司聘請了你，你將在幾周內離開本公司。這可能是場令人尷尬的談話，當老闆請求你留下時會變得更加尷尬。他可能會向你開出更好的條件，比如加薪或升職。這或許很誘人，但職場專家說，你不應該接受。
Often, the two weeks』 notice becomes a wake-up call to the employer that they』ve missed something and were not as attuned to the employee as they thought they were. They realize they don’t want to lose this individual and so they need to take steps to rectify the situation.
通常，提前兩周的辭職通知會使僱主意識到，他們錯過了某樣東西，他們對待這位員工或許不像他們以為的那樣好。他們意識到，他們不想失去這個人，因此他們必須採取措施扭轉局面。
A counteroffer is a knee-jerk reaction. [Your employer] may immediately think, 『Oh, no, how can we get by without him?』 Many organizations are stretched to their capacity in terms of what they can get done with the people they have on board, and it can be frightening, at first, for your boss to imagine how to pick up the slack or train someone new.
還價是本能反應。（你的僱主）可能會馬上想到， 噢，不，沒有他的話我們怎麼工作？ 很多公司竭盡所能地挽留現有員工。起初，你的老闆一想到如何接手你留下的工作或者培訓新人就會感到頭疼。
If they counteroffer, they probably think you have a lot of valuable insights. They put a lot of effort into training you for your current job. That training cost them money, and they hate to lose their investment in you to another organization.
如果老闆向你還價，那麼他們可能認為你還有價值。他們花費大力氣培訓你做好現在這份工作。培訓花了他們的錢。他們很不願意失去他們對你的投資，讓另外一家公司撿便宜。
Your employer may counteroffer because they want you to stick around long enough to find a replacement and paying a little extra now is worth it in terms of keeping the train moving, versus the potential delays and issues that would arise from an empty cubicle seat. But this could be dangerous for you.
你的僱主可能會還價，因為他們想讓你留下來直至找到接替者，而且與崗位空置可能導致的工作延誤和其他問題相比，支付多一點的薪酬很划算，因為這能使公司繼續正常運轉。但這對你而言可能是危險的。
I suspect that most companies do not see this as a long-term expense, as you have already 『outted』 yourself as a flight risk. Most likely, they will let you go once they have someone else to replace you. Forgive me if that sounds cynical, but I have spoken with people that have experienced that first hand.
我認為大多數公司都不會把還價後你的留任當做長期做法，因為你是具有外逃風險的人，你已經讓自己出局了。最有可能的是，一旦他們有了能夠接替你的人選，就會讓你離開。請原諒我說得這麼冷酷無情，但我與那些有這種親身經歷的人交談過。
One way to avoid this altogether: Don’t disclose the salary you’re being offered by the other company.
徹底避免遇到這種情況的一個方法是，不要透露另外那家公司向你開出的薪水。
If you decide to tell your boss the new salary, he or she may realize that [money is what's] pulling you away from the company. In response, the boss may counteroffer with more money, a bonus, a promotion, or better work schedule to get you to stay.
如果你決定把另外那家公司開出的薪水告訴你的老闆，他或她可能會認為金錢是令你辭職的原因。對此，老闆可能會還價，用加薪、獎金、升職或更好的工作日程來挽留你。
While it’s flattering to be so sought-after, it’s probably not worth the risk in most cases. Consider the reason you were looking for a new job in the first place. Was it only about money? Perhaps you are looking for a new challenge, new colleagues, a new corporate culture, or flexibility at work? Maybe you are switching industries to follow a passion or interest? Accepting a counteroffer typically prevents you from accomplishing these goals.
雖然被老闆極力挽留令人受寵若驚，但在大多數情況下可能都不值得為此冒險。想想你最初決定跳槽的原因。只是因為錢嗎？或許你想要的是新的挑戰、新的同事、新的企業文化或者工作上的靈活安排？或許你想轉行追求自己的愛好或興趣？接受老闆的還價通常會阻止你實現這些目標。
If you determine that accepting the counteroffer isn’t in your best interest, you should decline politely to avoid burning bridges. You never know. You may have to work with that person again in a new capacity. Maybe they will become a customer. Maybe they will be pals with an executive you are trying to partner with. It’s a very small world.
如果你認為接受還價不符合你的最大利益，那麼你應該禮貌地拒絕，以免傷了感情。世事難料。你可能不得不在新崗位上與這個人再次共事。或許他們將變成客戶，或許他們是你試圖打好關係的公司高管的朋友。這個世界很小。
First, thank your boss for the counteroffer. Say, 「I am truly flattered, but wheels have been set in motion and I cannot renege on my word. I realize that my leaving may put you at a disadvantage which is why I have put my work in order, made notes on all the projects I am currently working on and giving you a list of potential hires that I have already vetted.」
首先感謝你的老闆提出還價：「我真的深感榮幸，但木已成舟，我不能食言。我知道，我的離開可能會給你帶來不便，因此我已經理清了手頭上的工作，對我目前參與的所有項目做了註解，並且列出了我仔細考慮過的接替名單。」
A week after leaving the company, send a thank you note for the lessons learned while working at the past employer. 「Send wishes of continued success」.
在離開公司一周後，向前僱主寫封信，感謝在他手下工作時學到的經驗教訓。「祝願他繼續成功。」
