How many of these companies think employees are going to say it's about the money during an exit interview? Usually if you agree to an exit interview it's to be diplomatic and not burn your bridges. You're not going to tell the truth, you're going to say what they want to hear.

I was abundantly clear that I was leaving for the money. They countered with a salary that was pretty much identical, but I wasn't shy about telling hr that it shouldn't take me getting another offer to convince them that I was worth paying market rates for.

No bridges burned, they've reached out twice now to see if I'd come back and the salary is now pretty competitive but I'm in a good spot and not interested in leaving.

You can be honest and diplomatic....if you try.

So what you're saying is that your reason for leaving wasn't about the money

It was specifically about the money. Please don't be one of those people so ignorant as to believe that a firm who doesn't value their employees until they're one foot out the door is somewhere that will pay you what you're worth in the long run. Being competitive now doesn't mean I'd be making more money, it just means they're now in the range for my position.

Money isn't only valuable in this instant, the availability of money in the future is also an important factor.

I always have. If that's the reason, why wouldn't you? It's just business. Once, they've offered me a potentential promotion or salary increase to try to retain me (but not nearly as much as I got from the new job). I doubled my salary and got my title promoted twice in 2 years by switching employers twice. If I keep it up I'll be a CEO in no-time, lol.
