<prompt> Human: Ok so I have to be quick here so Ill only go over the broad strokes. Been working with this company for 6 months, not too happy for a variety of reasons. Applied at another company and got an offer, for 68.75 more and roughly the same benefits. I accepted it and wrote out my resignation yesterday. This morning my boss comes to talk to me about it. Says we really dont want to lose youyou have a promising career here. The usual. He asks why I am leaving and I tell him its a variety of reasons, pay being one and happiness being the other. He asked me to elaborate on what made me unhappy and I couldnt give a clear answernot that I dont have one, or that it even relates to my boss I in fact have a lot of complaints, about how the company treats its employees and clients and in general how business is handled. But wasnt sure if I wanted to tell him that. So instead I told him the main reason I was unhappy is that there seems to be no opportunity for upward mobilityalso true and that I havent seen my other peers advance who have been here for 2-3 years and are still in relatively the same place as me as 6 monthsboth pay wise and standing in the company, were talking like 2-5 raises so he tells me that I shouldnt use them as an example, I stand out and will move up much faster. Then he says that they would be very interested in keeping me on and might be willing to match the 68.75 offer made by the other company, depending on his boss responsewhich he felt would be a yes and told me to think about it and talk to him again at the end of the day. So I have a meeting in a half hour. I dont think Im going to take his offer if he makes one but I dont know how much I want to tell him about how unhappy I am working here. So any zero hour advice guys? Sorry this is so hastily written.Edit: Thanks for the input everyone. My boss made me a slightly higher offer but I turned it down in favor of the new company. I was open with my grievances but was polite and offered feedback. Boss took it very well, understood where I was coming from, and said that if I was ever interested in working for this company again down the road, to reach out to him and that he would push for me.  <response>: Run far, far away from your current job. They will only pay you for as long as it takes to replace you.
