Another way of doing it is on the Daily Standup, when the topic moves on to Anything else?

Most managers I've had appreciate being told individually. If there's any chance at all you'd take a counter offer, you should let management know privately. Theyre less likely to counter if you're news is known publicly.

(Imo never take a counter but always listen to one. That's valuable market information)

6 years later and I definitely regret taking a counter offer.

Once you've announced your intention to leave, even just privately, it changes your relationship. Accepting a counter-offer is just going to leave things awkward.

Very awkward I'd say. A counter offer is just adding insult to injury, e.g. why was is not offered with salary adjustments earlier.

In my experience only two scenarios offer a substantial raise in pay: Switching jobs or Getting a new role/title.

Somehow just doing your job well is not enough.
