Yes you should take it, if you got no other options.
Then you immediately update your CV with your new job title and jump ship for more pay. If the orginal company offers to match the pay you say "you had the chance to pay me more. If you valued me that much, you could have paid me that much from the start"
Don’t go back on your intent to leave for a better job. Some employers will see you as disloyal if you take the raise and stay. You’re usually better off leaving anyway.
If you take the raise and stay, you're now a bigger number on the same asshole bean counter's spreadsheet. Maybe the biggest in your role. That's not a long term move.
Being the highest paid is always the best move.
Highest-paid-off is first laid-off.
