I recently gave my two weeks' notice at my job as an inside sales representative, and my last day is in just three days. I’ve been with the company for about a year and a half, and my goal has always been to transition to an outside sales role. After asking about this move several times, I was met with vague responses about market conditions and company priorities, which led me to start looking for other opportunities. I ended up accepting a job offer from a different company in a similar industry. I informed my manager about my decision three weeks ago to give them enough time to find a replacement for my position, especially since I had just been promoted to senior inside sales and taken on additional responsibilities. Now, just three days before I’m set to leave, my boss calls me with an offer for the outside sales role I’ve been wanting. While I’m tempted to stay, I’ve already completed most of the onboarding paperwork for my new job. I know that since my new role is 'at will,' I could technically back out, but I’m unsure about the implications of doing so. The advice I’ve received from others suggests that my current company’s late offer is a sign of desperation, and they should have presented it to me much earlier. They’ve shown their true colors by waiting until now to make this offer, and I’m worried that accepting it might lead to future issues. I’m considering my options carefully as I navigate this situation.
