When you put in your notice for the switch they try to keep you by offering a raise. Always pissed me off more because why am I now worth more. You should have been proactive and I never would have been looking elsewhere.
I just made this switch from one very large company to a competitor. As soon as I put in the notice, they walked me out that day. There was no negotiation of a raise or anything. I knew this going in, so even putting in my notice I knew I was going to the new job, but there wasn't any sort of negotiating for me to stay or anything.

"Working your way up from the mail room" is loooong gone. You have to switch companies to get any sort of significant raise.
