Is it that surprising? Colleague of mine rejected a 50% pay rise at another company because the commute would be too annoying. He then took it when the next company offered full remote. Another colleague of mine is struggling to pick between all the companies offering him almost double his current salary. That's the market right now.

It's surprising to me that OP made them wait two weeks.

When you're getting showered with options, 2 weeks is low. We tried to hire a guy who told us he'd only give us an answer more than month later.
