Which offer should I take?

I have an offer from a startup that has good growth and culture, but the medical plan is expensive.

2nd offer is from a startup that was recently bought out by a enterprise Ed tech company that offers a bit lower comp and culture seems ok but medical plan is very good.

My family doesn’t go to doctors too often but it’s good to know it’s there when I need it and the monthly payment is lower. Also seems like a longer pathway to AE

Which would you pick?

My biased review says take more money and shorter path to AE (sounds like first option) as once you do that for 6 months to a year your options after as an experienced AE are limitless and can get the best medical plan

To the second point, that is only based off of perception. Ya never know what’s insights/tips the reps on your team will have. On top of money, make sure your leadership seems like the know what they are doing. As long it hasn’t been there first management gig and they have plans for the company to grow-you’re in a good spot.

I think initial/onboarding training is important but I don’t think it’s make or break. You can always ask AE’s for more information on your product and being persistent on the phone and showcasing value to prospects can all be learned on your own. Hope it goes well for you.

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.
