I got a message this morning on LinkedIn from another office located very far away from where I currently live. (4+ hours highway drive) They're offering me a position, sight unseen, and offered a salary that is a bit more (10 - 15%) than what I currently make.
I have absolutely no intention whatsoever to move my family from where we currently live to this new location. They could offer me way more and I'd still decline. All our loved ones live here and considering everything going on in the world, I'm pretty damn blessed.
Would it be fair or foul play to use the offer I got as a bargaining chip with my current employer? Or is the fact that the offer is in a place so far away from where I live pretty much negate any leverage I could apply to my current position?
Feel free to chime in with your thoughts!
