Would you prefer a higher salary with expectation of overtime or time and a half for extra hours? I am trying to settle a bet at what would be a better move. I would say time and a half unless you have knowledge of how many hours you work, but that can backfire depending on the project. Open to changing my mind though.

Overtime seems good on paper but in practice, it impacts financials in unexpected ways and people react badly to it. Expect to have your productivity examined and to have a shorter leash in general on staying staffed. That’s true whether you’re working for a big firm or independent.

So rather have the bigger salary.

It boils down to the math of two offers being presented. My experience has been that salaried roles typically pay more per hour worked, though there are surely cases where the OT role ends up making more in certain circumstances.

second option. i can control if/when i work extra hours

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?
