Max out 401k before contributing to taxable brokerage? Roth IRA is already maxed out.

Hi everyone. I was given a verbal offer after some negotiation and I’m comfortable with the salary. There was no real discussion about anything other than salary. When the written offer arrives, have you had any success negotiating PTO, health insurance, retirement ect.? Thanks!

I’m looking to hire anyone interested in starting a career in the Health Insurance Industry. Weekly Pay with residual income and bonuses. Our office is Downtown Chicago in front of the Sears tower. Company provided leads with a work hard play hard culture.

Mid-level associate at a mid-size regional insurance defense firm practicing coverage litigation. Salary is capped b/c my firm only does I.D./coverage and has no direct-hire comm clients. Second round of interviews with a comm lit boutique where I would be the only associate with 5 partners. Other than partner track, salary/benefits, and switching from coverage to general comm lit, what qualities of the move should I be thinking about as I weigh my options? I've never worked at another firm.
