Compare Job Offers Beyond the Headline Salary
Commute time, schedule, benefits, and one-time costs can change what two offers mean to you.
Compare user-supplied compensation, commute, recurring costs, and fit ratings over a chosen period without calculating tax or recommending an offer.
What changes the result: your written offer terms, commute assumptions, and the factors you value.
Privacy: Calculations run in this browser tab. This tool has no input-upload, account, or AI endpoint. The site may send a page-view signal to Cloudflare; this tool does not add form entries to that signal. A draft is stored only if you choose “Save draft on this device”; that browser storage is not encrypted. Avoid identifiers or sensitive details, and delete saved drafts when finished.
Your entries
The starting rows below are fictional examples. Edit them, replace them with non-sensitive labels and values, or load the sample again. The result is not advice or a source verification.
Amount fields use the same units you enter; the app does not choose a currency. Dates are the ones you provide. Up to 100 rows per run.
Calculated output
What the calculation does
For ordinary options, display ranges on the values the user entered without ranking the options. For the utility-rate version, calculate old rate times usage plus old fixed charge, and repeat with the new inputs. The estimate excludes any charge the user did not enter.
Question to keep open: Should a choice be led by the largest gross number, or by the mix of time, benefits, and constraints that matter to the person?
Boundary: This does not estimate take-home pay, value benefits, predict job security, or provide tax/employment advice. Verify each term with the employer and qualified advisers.
Copy includes the headline, aggregate metrics, and boundary—not the row-by-row input. The CSV contains entries you choose to download. Review it before sharing.
