What is this tool?

Normalizes two job offers into comparable annual figures. Each offer can use annual or hourly base pay, plus signing bonus, recurring annual bonus, and an optional simple benefits-value estimate (health, 401(k) match, PTO, etc.). Year-1 totals include signing bonus; ongoing annual totals exclude it. Does not model taxes, equity, or detailed benefits packages.

How to use it

  1. Fill Offer A and Offer B: base compensation (hourly or annual), signing bonus, and annual bonus.
  2. Optionally enter a rough annual benefits-value estimate for each offer.
  3. Compare year-1 totals and ongoing annual equivalents side by side.
