Your current employer gave you a raise under pressure. You told them you are leaving, they wanted you to stay so they toped the offer. Depending on the quaility of your employer, that may back fire at you when the pressure is gone. They may ask you train an associate or hire a new developer and when the pressure is gone, give you the pink slip. It is for your interst to never ever accept an exit offer.

Spot on in my opinion.

Having gone on weekend trips to Chicago I'm fully aware of the cost to live there. I have friends who live there and when their one bedroom condo costs twice what I paid for my three bedroom house I laugh at them. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if the schools were a touch better here but then again I'm biased :-D Unlike some I feel there's plenty to do in the Des Moines area if you know where to look and if there isn't we can always go up to Ames.

Don't know about your particular case, but I consider that a bad idea in general. If you are leaving, leave and don't look back.

There is nothing in Ames. It's a black hole. :P

As an arsenal fan with family in Southampton this is one of those games where you wish that both sides could somehow lose

Again, if you are that valuable to them why did it take a threat to leave to get such a deal?

Oh come now you have ISU women's basketball and pretty soon you'll have football. It's a college town, parties everywhere! (If I were a younger unattached man anyhow) :-D
