How good is the 401k? Its just money... get a 10% raise elsewhere with normal 401k and it evens out, no?
If you're really frustrated at a job, it's probably not a good idea to stick around because of the retirement benefits. Being miserable now so you'll have a comfortable retirement years from now is a difficult tradeoff. You might as well see what else is available. There's always the possibility another opportunity may have commensurate retirement benefits anyway.
It’s simply part of your total compensation.
Don’t over-complicate it.
It depends on what the rest of your downsides at the company are. If I hated the environment but they have a great 401k match, then I’d be more likely to switch. It really depends on the amount of the match or profit-sharing to be able to say for sure.
