Those engineers demanded a 50% pay increase, right? Right?
I know if I got told to fuck off and then they come around begging for my help, you know I'm going to make sure they remember their mistake.
Why should they be so modest?
I know several people who would never return to any company who has fired them. Neither for 50% nor for 5000%.
I personally would think hard for 1000% or more.
I would probably do it for 6 month's income as a lump sum to fix that 1 thing. I wouldn't go back on payroll that's for sure
