Aside from salary, what are some benefits you look for when applying for a new job? Are they non-negotiables or just nice to have? I personally would be looking for some sort of tuition assistance or reimbursement but that’s not a requirement. A fitness reimbursement would also be really nice - I know some people who get classpass memberships as part of their benefit package. A non-negotiable would be a 401K match. In today’s world, how can we ever expect to retire without one?

The things you mention are all solid considerations. I'd add to that PTO that would let me take a substantial vacation plus some other time here and there. And perhaps some kind of hybrid working situation if not a remote setup. I suspect remote work is probably going to be phased out for the most part, but it would be good to get some kind of assurance on that.

Non-negotiable to me is health and dental insurance (with option to add my dependents). I'd also say PTO is a non-negotiable. Remote or hybrid work is preferred in my situation but I am willing to negotiate on how much time I spend in the office

401k, solid PTO, and flexibility. The biggest thing I look for is if bosses are flexible on working hours / appointments vs making me take PTO for doctors appts, etc. it’s the biggest thing I love about my current job is if I’m done at 2pm, I can leave and no one minds. Same for possibility of hybrid work.

I always look for either more or the same number of days off. That’s pretty non-negotiable for me

401k match, flexibility in working remotely, and PTO time

Anyone in a similar situation? Is there a clear way to know when the call letter would be released?
