What do you take into account when considering other jobs? Is it just about the pay for you? The benefits and WLB? Something else?

I'm independently wealthy, so unlike many, I actually don't much care about compensation. My return on stock portfolios, individual investments in REIT, properties, and managed money will bring me far more every month than any employer would be willing to pay, so it doesn't make sense for me.

That being the case, I care about whatever job will allow me to have fun, solid work-life balance, maximum vacation whenever needed, and ideally attractive, young, hot people to be surrounded with, oh and also company events and parties. Basically I'm here for a good time, if it isn't a good time, no point in working there.

Early in my career I cared about the whole package - now all I care about is money and aggressive accelerators. Typically places that pay their sales people well have good benefits. I could care less about any vacation over 4 weeks - the likelihood of being able to take it and still be successful is low.

The work life balance after working at Michaels Angelo's full time for $8.00 an hour getting paid twice a month. I'm like I need a job where I don't see coworkers 5 days a week doing the same thing every single day.

My area of sales doesn't really allow work life balance sadly, and no one will give you more than 2 wks vacation. So I try to find a manager that won't make my life hell, good insurance, 401k matches/contributions, and decent pay.

I was just let go from my company which I really enjoyed working at after only 9 months in a newly created role. I was completely blindsided and told it’s was due to scope and organizational changes. I had no performance reviews or discussions leading up to termination. It didn’t seem like this was a performance driven decision, but I feel completely left in the dark and unsure what to do in this economic climate. Should I ask for more severance (4wk/2 paychecks is what they offered)?

I'm interviewing for diff companies (a few out of state) and would have to relocate if I receive the offer but some are fully remote positions. Is pay a good trade-off for WLB since I'm still early in my career?
