That company with the 'meh' salary? Turns out, their benefits are AMAZING. Starting to think total compensation matters more than just the base number. How much do you value benefits against pure paycheck?

Benefits are absolutely important. To me they are equal importance to salary unless the salary is exorbitant. If you have a great salary & mediocre benefits, you are potentially at great financial risk should you have a health crisis. When I was diagnosed w/ cancer, I had no concern about my care. The only thing I paid for all my treatment was the 10.00 co-pay for my chemo treatments I didn’t have a copay for radiation. My care was well into the 6 figures. I also have 5 weeks vacation + the 2 weeks, so I usually carryover, all federal holidays.

Very important but I just ascribe a monetary value to the benefit itself and, if relevant, the convenience of not having to obtain whatever it is directly.
