<prompt> Human: EDIT 2:I just signed a contract at the new company. They gave me such a great vibe and i got a bit more money and a longer contract out of it. Im hyped! Thanks for sharing your opinions and experiences.EDIT:Title says employee. I mean boss!Seems i cannot edit it.. Dear PF,Ill try to keep this as short as possible.Bare with me because English is not my native language. Dutch guy here.I work as a full-stack developer at my current job. Have done so for the past 4 years to full satisfaction of both myself and my boss.Lately ive got the feeling my personal growth has been put to a halt. My specialty is front-end development and this is where my passion lies. Currently this is the smallest part of my total job package.Ive had multiple meetings and a job interview yesterday at a company that i REALLY like.Ill be getting an increased salary and ill work as a front-end developer not full stack anymore which is exactly what i want.Yesterday i gave my current boss my leave notice. He told me to not sign anything at the other company for another day so he could make up a counter offer which he just gave me.Basically ill be getting paid the same a bit extra the other company offered me and hell promote me to senior front-end developer always good on the resumé right?.. .I told him im not all in it for the money, but after that he dropped a big a-bomb on me.If i keep working for him for another 2 years, hell make me a business partner, which means ill get a share of company profit holy sheit right?. I told him id like the weekend to think it over.My current boss and i are on super good terms, so im sure hell follow through with it may the time come.The company i have a job offer at wants to up their current offer probably salary and they have invited me for another meeting in approx. 2 hours which i will be hearing out.If i listen to my gut feeling i want to take the other job. I do get the feeling its more up my alley.On the other hand.. the offer im getting at my old job may skyrocket my career if i invest the time. Are there any people with a similar experience? What have you done and what would you recommend me?Im super happy to know people will go this far to keephire me, but it also frightens me a bit as this is the first time ive ever had something this huge.Thanks for your time.  <response>: If i keep working for him for another 2 years, hell make me a business partner Unless this written in an employment contract, you can not count on it. What happens if he sells the business in 18 months and you wasted 18 months? IF YOU REMAIN, you need an employment contract that covers everything and I mean everything...especially if dont get the partner position because of a variety of reasons.
