Job Offer Comparison — Compare 3 Offers Side by Side

Compare up to 3 job offers on real value: after-tax take-home, benefits worth, PTO days, commute/remote flexibility, and weighted scoring. Free, private.

The highest salary is often not the best offer. This comparison puts up to three offers side by side and converts the fuzzy stuff into numbers: after-tax take-home, the dollar value of health insurance and 401(k) match, PTO days, bonus targets, and commute or remote flexibility.

Weight the categories by what matters to you and get a total score per offer. Everything is calculated in your browser — offer letters contain personal details that have no business being uploaded anywhere.

Tax estimates use simplified flat rates (24% federal, 5% state, 7.65% FICA). Actual tax varies by state, filing status, and deductions. Consult a tax professional for precise calculations.

Total compensation and the weighted score — illustrated

Raw base salary is a weak basis for comparing offers, because bonus, equity, and benefits can swing the real value by tens of thousands of dollars. This tool first sums total compensation — base salary, annual bonus, equity per year, sign-on bonus, 401(k) match, and health-insurance value — then derives two reality checks: an after-tax take-home using simplified flat rates (24% federal + 5% state + 7.65% FICA), and an hourly equivalent that divides the package by actual working days after PTO, adding ~$15/day of remote savings. Finally, a weighted 0–100 score blends compensation (40%), your growth rating (25%), work-life rating (20%), and remote flexibility (15%) so a lower-paying but higher-quality offer can still win the ★ BEST badge.

Four income components add into total compensation; flat-rate taxes and working days turn that into take-home and an hourly rate; the 40/25/20/15 weights produce the final 0–100 score.

Maya compares two offers

Maya has two offers: TechCorp at $145,000 base with a $15,000 bonus, $20,000/yr equity, $10,000 sign-on, 6% 401(k) match, $8,000 health value, 20 PTO days and 3 remote days; and a startup at $135,000 base with a $20,000 bonus, $35,000 equity, $25,000 sign-on, 5% match, $9,000 health value, 25 PTO days and a fully remote schedule.

  1. Total compensation:TechCorp: $145,000 + $15,000 + $20,000 + $10,000 + $7,250 + $8,000 = $205,250. Startup: $135,000 + $20,000 + $35,000 + $25,000 + $6,750 + $9,000 = $230,750.
  2. After-tax take-home:Applying 24% federal + 5% state + 7.65% FICA to the taxable slice, TechCorp lands near $143K while the startup comes out around $165K — equity and benefits avoid payroll tax.
  3. Hourly equivalent:TechCorp ≈ $108/hr (20 PTO days, 3 remote days); the startup ≈ $125/hr because 25 PTO days and $15/day remote savings boost the per-hour figure.
  4. Weighted score:40% comp + 25% growth + 20% work-life + 15% remote: the startup’s 8/8/8 subjective ratings tip the score and it earns the ★ BEST badge.

Frequently asked questions

How do I compare two job offers fairly?

Normalize everything to annual value: base salary plus expected bonus, the employer-side worth of health coverage and retirement match, PTO converted at your daily rate, and the commute cost in time and money. Weighted scoring then reflects your priorities instead of just the biggest number.

Does it account for taxes and cost of living?

Take-home pay is estimated after standard tax withholding, which handles the biggest distortion between offers in different tax situations. Cost-of-living differences you should layer in via the salary figure itself — enter what each salary is worth locally rather than adjusting the calculator.
