That's just giving them a few months to find your replacement, at your old rate, then they'll find a 'miracle' reason to let go - but now you have nowhere to go.

I saw this happen, but actually worse, to a co-worker.

He was refused a raise, and told his boss he was going to start looking for another position. His boss told him that *if* he got an offer from another company, they'd be "willing to match it".

They didn't miraculously find the budget, they had it, but they refused to give him a raise unless he was able to leave.

Miracles are expensive. The price just went up. 💰
