@@gummy5862ehhhh depends, if that 40k salary also has included housing, potentially. I’ve worked jobs that had certain benefits like housing and transportation included. I would recommend that if that’s included, have very clear set standards in the contract on what that entails. For example, what does a furnished apartment mean? I was given an apartment without a couch and just dealt with it despite being told it was supposed to be furnished (I could have asked I was just nervous and it was my first big job). What does transportation entail? Is it a paid bus/train pass, Uber, Gas allowance, etc? There are jobs that include meals and childcare, what do those look like? If you are sick, are you still entitled to company childcare? (Because let’s be real, having childcare when you’re sick is a lifesaver particularly if you’re a single parent and just need a bit of time to recover). So yeah no, consider total compensation before writing it off. If the company is paying major expenses for you, 40k might actually end up functionally feeling like 60k because you’re not having to pay rent or have free childcare or amazing health insurance when you need that health insurance

Ok but the difference between jobs was 3k which is a lot but not that much in the grand scheme and better PTO options means the availability to take off when needed but not be lousing money. And the company covering phone and laptop likely covers the 3k difference in itself. You can't just look at the money going into your bank account you have to factor in what will be coming out because of the job.

Yeah, if a company pays more but has worse benefits, theres a decent chance youre gonna end up spending more than the extra money on what you wouldve gotten free otherwise

I actually had to do this when picking my first teaching job! I ended up going with the school that paid me less because it offered a better community, and better support for me as a first year teacher. And honestly, the vibes actually made a huge impact in my decision! So vibes do make a difference.

I chose the company with way too little salary for the first 12 months, over one with a normal salary in the first year with way off vibes. I loved the job and was able to afford it and after a year I got a normal salary for the job, and a year later got a promotion and now have hopped to an even more fun and more money job 😊

Gotta think about which at which company the work sounds more interesting too

This is some helpful info that I definitely want to share with my professional development instructor at my university. While I have worked on games in my field already, throughout my process of getting my bachelor's degree- I feel like I've learned so much from both my prodev courses and videos like these online. So uh, thanks! I know a lot more now than I did yesterday about comparing companies wages and benefits before deciding which is a better fit for me! Useful insight to have, seeing how tumultuous the creative media industries are at the moment.

Since in germany the paid time off and the health benefits and retirement disposals are all the same across the board, I picked based solely on salary XD

Even if company B pays more now, things could change in the future. Promotions and stuff will lead to higher salary.

I’m the same way with my job. I work part time with weekly pay and yeah the paycheck isn’t the highest but everyone I work with is so nice and friendly 😊

The only thing I dislike about this model is that it weights all categories equally. Definitely helps think in the right direction though!

This video was so well made I literally thought it was a shorts ad 😂.

In Australia, that retirement fund is called Superannuation. It's been illegal not to have one since 1980. It automatically gets set up for you either by your first employer or the government when you start working. The money is paid into the account as apart of your salary. Some companies add it separately, other companies may take a small portion of your overall income to cover it. You won't be able to access it until you either register for retirement, reach a certain age, or submit a request for acess in an emergency situation.

I remember my boss trying to explain to one of our staff that yes, the staffer's friend at a different facility did indeed get time-and-a-half for anything over 8 hours... but the other company did not have the paid sick days, paid holidays, or subsidized life insurance, health insurance, dental insurance, and an optical plan like we did for just a couple of thousand dollars less a year in average salary earned.

Vibes over pay, to a point. If 44k makes you feel guilty before you even sit in the office for having prior commitments but 41k you spent half your interview talking hobbies and feeling at ease, you can spend $50 a week to enjoy work (3000/year, 2400 after taxes, 200/mo, 50/wk)

3 month probation not too bad. My job demands 2 years of probation and it ended yesterday.🎉

I always look at holiday days. That’s the only thing that matters to me because I like to spontaneously go on holiday or just disappear.

Where I live holiday and health will be basically the same everywhere. Some companies might have holiday increase after few years. I know some offer basically 10 more weeks after like 20 years. While other would cap out at 5 extra holiday days

Not me thinking “oh we have the same shirt”

And this is why you live in Europe, where medical, dental, vision and unemployment and retirement insurance is always there, no matter the company, and you have a minimum of 20 vacation days a year + public holidays, with the minimum in my country being 28, and my company actually offering 36 vacation days a year.

I love the list comparing, but personally I break it down a bit more giving a value to as much as possible. For example, how much vacation is valued based on my salary at each and then add that into the toral compensation. Then you can go back to one of the companies to negotiate if you have a preference based on vibe. My last job couldn't offer me more vacation or retirement match but they did increase my salary by 12k and allowed me to take unpaid time off. This helped to compemsate for both my concerns.

Also don’t be afraid to ask for a higher starting! Let the company know another company is showing interest in hiring you and what their offer is. Let them know it might not be a dealbreaker but you want to throw it out there and see if they can do anything to match the other offers salary or offer a sign on bonus. Even if they can’t do it, asking shows negotiation and communication skills and I’ve never had a company begrudge me simply for asking :)

This is how I decided to switch jobs recently. They both pay the same and I obviously had more tenure in my old company but one is work in office and the other one is wfh so in reality I'm earning a lot more money in my new company since I don't have to pay nor waste my time in commute. Effectively saving me about 1.5k usd every month and anywhere between 40 to 80 hours of my time per month since I don't have to wake up early, nor prepare food to take with me nor actually get to the office.

Step1: get multiple offer letter during recession 😂😂

If Facs taught me anything it’s that your job should always match your interests, that way you will likely stay with the company longer and not get burnt out.

In the UK we don’t have to worry about pension savings, healthcare or payed time off. The state provides healthcare and a state pension and the employer is also required to pay into a workplace pension by law, we are also required to get 28 days of paid holiday per year or equivalent if working part time (if you only work 2 and a half days you should only get 14 days holiday- that sort of thing). We of course do have to decide between things like salary, vibe, company provided laptop or even car… but those basic things I mentioned above are covered by law.

Also: ask Company A if they can match the offer from Company B. There is often wiggle room for salaried positions.

It is the obligation of companies in my country to pay for the retirement fund and something like workers' health insurance. And it's not connected to the company, so even if you're fired, those two things, especially the retirement fund still continues.

They are only 3k apart, use B to negotiate with A to match or exceed Bs offer

If you are new to your career, don’t go with a start-up. You are learning your skills while they are learning how to be a business. Only one new party at a time. The start-up needs to hire people with experience.

For the record being a startup can be a reason to go to or stay away from a company. If a sartup has good vibes and you have the option to get in on the ground floor it could be way better for your career long-term. It could also implode in your face if it fails. It's riskier but has an opportunity for greater reward in the end. Mostly because in a startup you're likely going to have way more opportunity for upward mobility and creativity because there's no established pecking order yet. Especially if they have some sort of stock investment plan. Like if you can get shares on a startup and help build it to a successful company and it actually takes off, you're going to be way more prosperous than an established company working a regular 9-5. But there's no guarantee that's what will happen. But it's definitely worth keeping in mind if you're debating between two job offers.

I worked at a factory. It's only benefit was that it paid really well everything else sucked.

From a third world country here! Always love seeing these videos and seeing the comparison from here were our minimum wage is technically $1 an hour and in corporate jobs from Companies that are American or European based dont offer anything close to those salaries or benefits here.

You should have done a greater difference in pay. 41 and 44 is not that much of a difference. I recently got two job offers. One for 58k and the other for 60k. I ended up going to the first spot because they increased my offer to 78k and let me work from home.

Nope, here's how you actually choose, highest paying job offer you got, take it and no matter what find time to skill yourself up and have a minimalist lifestyle, cheap apartment, and make your own, food survival style, luxuries you need is sleep, till 1 year mark save up money and start looking for job opportunities at 6 month mark, and expand your network and try for better opportunities, get a few more offers for better pay and switch at about 1 to 1.5 year mark and do the same for next till the pay is substantial enough to get all your essentials covered with more than 50% to save and learn and create a business model and try different things and study and research before trying and when you find your specialization and area of excellence create a business based on it, and you can get create something with 5 years time, and if it pays well enough and is sustainable go for full time.
