<prompt> Human: Background: Im an engineer with 6 years of experience, fully licensed, etc. The past few years at my current job has been a bit disappointing as far as raises go when compared to company performance, so this past January I began sending out resumes.I went on an interview with another local firm. Similar position at a smaller firm with maybe a few people under me which I dont have now. I currently make 71kyear and the original offer was for 79k bonuses. I countered requesting a bit more than that since the benefits arent as good and I embellished my current salary. They came back with the original offer of 79k bonus as well as a 5k signing bonus paid out 50 immediate 50 6 months.To me its right on that edge of should I stay or should I go, so Im thinking about bringing this offer to my current boss to see if he can do anything to make me stay. How do you go about this? I dont want to seem like Im threatening or forcing their hand, but at the same time I would not leave if they matched the base of 79k. Any thoughts would be appreciated.  <response>: New job is offering you more salary, a signing bonus, and seems to be offering you more opportunity managing a small team than old job. New job has only known you a few hours and is already offering you a lot more than old job where youve worked for the last six years. Honestly, Id tell old job Thank you for all the opportunities but Im putting in my two weeks notice.
