I turned down 2 different jobs from M$ that were headed nowhere, and
looking back I am glad I did so.
One has been outsourced to India, the other was building a product that
never even made beta.

I've been offered a position with MS.
My present boss wants to keep me, has offered a raise and a generous
retirement package, along with future business possibilities.
So I turned it down, and now Microsoft is offering more. - about $76,000
This is a tough decision.
On one hand, I have my friends, family, and a new house. I like the
area pretty well, although I get tired of the small-mindedness of the
area. And my fiancee will not move up to Charlotte with me (if I go)
until we get married. It's only three hours away.
On the other hand, this is an incredible opportunity to work for the
biggest software company in the world, with unparalleled training and
future opportunity after I leave.
I presently make in the mid-40s.
Wow, what a decision.
Comments are appreciated.
