Counteroffer

A counteroffer is a response to an initial job offer where the recipient proposes different terms or conditions. This typically involves negotiating aspects such as salary, benefits, job responsibilities, or work schedule. In the context of employment, a counteroffer can occur when a job candidate receives an offer from an employer and responds with a proposal for improved terms. It can also happen when an employee, upon resigning, receives a counteroffer from their current employer to entice them to stay.
