Compare Two Job Offers Before Accepting Either

Two offers, a deadline, and the salary difference is smaller than you expected. This compares everything that matters: the full financial picture, which offer is better for the career you are actually building, what each role will be teaching you after a year, and the red flags you should resolve before saying yes to either.

**Compare** the following two job offers:

Offer 1: [describe role, salary, benefits, location, team, company stage, growth path, and anything you know or sense about the culture]
Offer 2: [same details]
Your current situation: [employed, unemployed, what you are leaving, your stated priority for this move]

1. What is the true financial comparison including all benefits, pension, bonus potential, equity, and hidden costs like commute or relocation?
2. Which offer is better for the version of your career you are building in [three to five years], not just the version you have today?
3. What is each role likely to be teaching you at the end of [year one], and which of those is more valuable to you?
4. What are the red flags or unknowns in each offer that you should resolve before accepting either?
5. What question should you ask each company before deciding, to surface the most important unknown?
