Counteroffers in Animal Health: Why More Candidates Are Saying No After Accepting
The animal health industry continues to face a highly competitive hiring landscape, particularly for experienced professionals in technical services, R&D, regulatory affairs, commercial leadership, manufacturing, and veterinary medicine. As a result, one trend we’ve seen become increasingly common is the rise of the counteroffer. Candidates who have accepted a new opportunity are often presented with a last-minute salary increase, promotion, or additional incentives from their current employer in an effort to convince them to stay. Counteroffers have always existed, but they are becoming more frequent as organizations work to retain top talent in a market where replacing experienced employees can be both difficult and expensive.
