I know everyone has their own values and priorities, with that said, I'd be glad to hear what you think.
Where I'm at: two offers for entry-level position. I've negotiated the same salary from both companies, benefit package are comparable. Recent grad. A California resident and lover.
Company A: (better financially)
Cons:
-It's southeast. Never been. I'll always think about coming back to CA.
-Humidity, ice...etc
-Been reading A LOT about the culture of the city, don't think it's my piece of pie.
Pros:
-enjoyed talking with all my interviewers on the phone; all are nice and affable; -My boss will be my friend who's also very nice and professional;
-Low cost of living. Could be easy for me to save money, pay off my debt. Live in better apartment with half of what it costs here.
-I THINK I can learn a wider spectrum of things in this company
Company B:
Cons:
-While many are very nice, some coworkers-to-be came across as indifferent at the interview, which I can understand because they probably know that they have little say in the hiring decision. It's up to the bosses.
-At least double the rent. Can say goodbye to saving up for a while. (I don't have an extravagant lifestyle, and would like to know if shit happens to me I'd have financial backup)
-Study reimbursement doesn't kick in until half a year working for the company
Pros:
-CALIFORNIA!! Beach, sunshine, and beach! More comfortable here
-Higher employee discount on stocks...for however much that matters, since I don't know if I'll have money left for stocks
My friend/could-be-boss did say during the offer that they have an office in CA and if I'm interested and good in the future there's a possibility for a transfer. I didn't dig too much on this subject because I don't want to sound like I'm not enthusiastic about working in his office, which I am.
Location vs work environment & finance, really
