If you get multiple job offers, what is the best way to determine which is the best for you to accept?
A list of pros and cons?! I do love a spreadsheet so the finance girl in me just wants to put all the data in a spreadsheet ahah

Pros and cons list is a good start, create another list and prioritize what your values are tho, then create a weight system (1-3/1-5) against each pro and con and value. Then look at the data and see what emerges.

Values examples would be commute, WLB, culture, salary, etc.

You can even go crazy with plotting on a 4 quadrant chart.

This is so true!! Sometimes you do just get a feeling and it usually does run out to be right

"I do love a spreadsheet so the finance girl in me just wants to put all the data in a spreadsheet ahah." I know that's a joke, but it's honestly a good idea. It's hard to make a solid evaluation based off the surface level stuff (salary, PTO, 401k match, etc.) alone. Putting in all that info - plus other benefits with real dollar values associated with them - into a spreadsheet should paint a much clearer picture.

So since, I have done exactly that, put absolutely everything in a spreadsheet and put ratings on them and it’s worked very well!

Spreadsheets can be a good starting point. Definitely consider things past just pay like benefits, office location, etc. Does the role align with both your work and personal goals?

Yeah I have added all that into the spreadsheet now and rated each section to see the overall score! It’s worked well :D
