Comment on How would you evaluate having more pay vs an easier job?

Those are only two variables of many.
At one point, I had job offers from four places at the same time, offering me different salaries, benefits packages, work culture, work effort and work mobility.
I ended up taking the job that was the most intellectually stimulating, had the best benefits package, and had a good cultural fit. Sometimes I had to work weekends, but got paid double for doing that; usually that was one weekend shift a month. Overall pay was on the low side of competitive.
I never regretted the choice.

Ok that makes sense. I wasn’t saying those are those only variables just the ones I could theoretically control.
