সচরাচর জিজ্ঞাসা
Should I compare salary or total compensation?
Always compare total compensation: salary + benefits (health insurance, 401k match, PTO, stock options). Benefits can add 20–40% to true value.
How do I account for cost of living differences?
Use cost-of-living calculators or databases (Numbeo, MIT Living Wage). A $100k salary in San Francisco ≠ $100k in a lower-cost area.
What about remote vs office work?
Remote roles often pay less but save commute time and cost. Calculate true hourly rate including commute hours and expenses.
