1. An employee says she received an offer from another employer and is considering accepting the
offer. Money is a huge factor. She currently makes $60,000 per year and the offer is for $68,000 per
year. The employee says she will decline the offer if you agree to a $5,000 pay increase. What
should you consider in this situation to make a responsible decision about how to proceed? Do you
offer her a raise? If so, how much?
2. As the hiring manager for an open position in your department, you decided to offer the job to an
employee who works in another department in the organization. The position is classified two pay
grades higher than the employee’s current position. What additional questions must be answered,
and what additional information do you need to make a responsible decision regarding how much, if
any, of a pay increase is appropriate in this case? How will you determine an appropriate starting
pay for this employee’s pending promotion?
