One thing I have heard: do not accept a current employer's counter-offer. Your current (and ideally soon-to-be-former) employer has failed to appreciate you while yo were there, underpaying you and failing to use your abilities to the fullest. In other words, you have been underemployed and underpaid, if overworked. You may have fallen for the myth that being overworked and underpaid offers some security -- but only if you are one of those who needs that security just to be employed. If everyone else is being overworked and underpaid, then your employer is either a systematic exploiter or is in a death spiral.
Get the sour taste out of your mouth. Just leave, even if the move is lateral.
Bad dog -- congratulations on leaving. Life is just too short to be exploited badly in a crassly-materialistic social order.

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
