Ask for the total compensation, growth path and manager expectations. Salary matters, but so does the environment you will live in daily. The social part surprised me too.

Short answer: yes. Long answer: also yes.

Ask for the total compensation, growth path and manager expectations. Salary matters, but so does the environment you will live in daily. I would write it down before changing anything else.

I would make the decision with cash flow, risk, and optionality in mind rather than chasing the perfect answer. The trap is trying to optimize before you have feedback.

- Start small and make the next step obvious.
- Keep notes so you can compare what worked.
- Ask someone with recent experience, not just strong opinions.

Hope this helps!

Could be regional too.

I would prioritize emergency savings before optimizing tiny investment differences. Boring liquidity prevents expensive panic. It sounds small, but the route matters.

Small caveat: context changes the answer a lot.

I am skeptical. The idea sounds good, but the maintenance cost is real. I am curious whether jobs still feels good next month.
