How scores work: pay, benefits and time-off are scored against the best offer in your set (best = 10). Commute, remote days and growth are scored on their own. Take-home is shown for reference and isn't scored separately, so pay isn't counted twice. Equity is spread over its vesting period after your risk discount. This is a decision aid built only from the numbers you enter — not tax or financial advice.
How to compare job offers
Most people compare offers on base salary alone, then regret it. A fair comparison turns every offer into the same yearly terms — cash, equity and benefits — and then weighs the parts of a job that money doesn't capture: how long the commute is, how many days you can work from home, how much time off you get, and how far the role can take you.
The step most people skip is deciding what matters before adding up the totals. Set your weights first — if flexibility matters twice as much as bonus to you, say so — and the comparison follows your priorities rather than whichever number is biggest.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I compare two job offers fairly?
- Put every offer on the same footing: annual base, expected bonus, equity spread over its vesting period, and the yearly value of benefits. Then add the things a salary figure hides — commute, remote days, time off and growth — and decide how much each one matters to you before looking at the totals.
- How is equity valued here?
- The grant value is divided by the vesting period, then reduced by the risk discount you choose. Use 0% for liquid public stock you can sell, and a heavy discount for early-stage private equity that may never be worth anything.
- What does the overall score mean?
- It is a weighted average out of 100 using the priorities you set. Pay, benefits and time off are scored against the best offer in your set; commute, remote days and growth are scored on their own. It reflects your priorities, not an objective ranking.
- Is the take-home figure accurate?
- It is only as accurate as the tax rate you enter — or you can type in your own take-home. It is applied to base plus bonus and is not tax advice.
- Is my data saved?
- No. The whole comparison runs in your browser and nothing you enter is sent to a server or stored. Close the tab and it is gone.
