<prompt> Human: Hi all,Ive been working as an automation engineer the last 5 years, whereas I have been moving between Germany and Italy a lot because of it. I am currently working with a great team, but my salary is so low that, should I ever for some reason break up with my girlfriend, I wouldnt last one month where Im living now.A bit of context:I am appreciated a lot by my current team since I have a skillset in particular subjects that others dont have and I love helping them while I also love being helped by them.Since I work for an international company with over 300k coworkers, I felt it was time to ask to get a little raise to be at least be able to survive on my own.Now comes the difficult part. My direct superior is probably one of the best persons Ive met in my life and as soon as I asked him about it, he immediately went to his boss telling him that I need a raise.His boss on the other hand denied the request immediately because it was my fault to accept the contract in the first place.That moment I decided that I wanted to see if I really was that little worth for the rest of the world. I accepted one of a lot of work requests I got from LinkedIn to see how well I could do.The catch is, that this company contacting me, after having done 3 interviews with them and talking to past references about me, offered me 4 times my current income.Now I told my direct bossgood guy that I will leave the company because apparently there is somebody out there thinking I am worth more.Immediately his bossboss boss contacted me telling me that there were raises and a growth program already in the doing for me and that I should reconsider about leaving.Im feeling quite bad because I know my direct boss wouldnt want me to leave, at the same time I feel being played a fool because I dont believe his boss words.Just wanted to check what you guys would be doing, since this is psychologically killing me lately. And I dont know what to chose.Sorry for this being so long, just had to give some details about the situation.Thank you for taking your time to read this.  <response>: 4 times your current pay? I dont care how good the new jobs salary seems, youre being taken advantage of in your current job if your salary is so low. No matter what they say, take the new job. Your boss seems like a nice guy, but the company has shown that theyre willing to pay you less than they know youre worth. I wouldnt even stay around for a competitive counter offer, much less this growth program nonsense. Take the new job, tell your direct boss you valued your time with him, and move on.
