Need some opinions here. Went through internal interview process at Unilever today for a supply planning role.
Got 2 offers, one for a relatively easy role that doesn't scare me but sounds boring and will be a normal 40hr workload.
Second is in one of our prominent brands that would have great future potential but I expect 50-60hr weeks.
Comp offer is the same for both $96k base and 10% bonus.

Is this a good offer in today's market?

Should I ask for more if I take the hard job?

Need more context. Is the job an analyst level job or a director level job? Is it in Thailand or the States? Is it Florida or NY?

Also is there a difference in PTO offerings? It will be more valuable in the 50-60hr/wk job.

It depends, if you're a high achiever that will hate boring work then take the challenging one. If you just want to turn in a 9-5 and go home take the easy one. Long term the challenging one will open more opportunities and pay better, but don't complain about the work life balance if you take it. Can't comment on the local rates, but it's not unusual for initial pay to be the same.

Another take, use your Unilever brand and apply for an MBA.

Is associate one level below manager? If so, it’s slightly low. I would expect 120k TC for that level.

And I would take the more challenging one. You can learn new skills and also use that to pivot elsewhere if Unilever doesn’t pan out.

In my view, depends your situation, if you looking for great experience the second one is the best. Anyway, what WL is it?

Airlines should gameify reducing emissions by rewarding flyers with discounts/coupons/miles/etc if we choose a route with a certain % lower emissions. Reason being, most people don't "really" care about saving the environment enough to inconvenience themselves or prioritize their airplane emissions over factors like duration and arrival time, but introduce basic incentives and more people will seek the greenest routes just to save a few bucks, or at least consider it a major priority.
