Or they would have him training his replacement the moment the other offer expired.

That's absolutely not how it works in the majority of corporations where you manager isn't a vindictive piece of shit, it's absolutely expected by management and HR. In this case, OP's manager had their back, they definitely wouldn't have faced retaliation.

I do this every few years and I've only switched companies a handful of them, and only because they wouldn't match the other offer. You can make corporations work for you you know, the "fear the corporation you work for" attitude is dangerous as hell.
