How to use the salary comparison calculator

1

Enter both offers

Input all the details for each job — salary, bonus, 401k match, health insurance, PTO, and commute costs.

2

See true value

The calculator accounts for taxes, commute costs, health insurance, and 401k match to show the true annual value of each offer.

3

Find the winner

Each category is compared side by side with a clear winner shown. The total value may surprise you — a higher salary isn't always the better offer.

Frequently asked questions

Should I always take the higher salary?
Not necessarily. A job with a $10,000 higher salary but worse benefits, higher commute costs, and less PTO can actually be worth less than the lower-paying job. This calculator helps you see the full picture by accounting for all components of compensation.
How is PTO value calculated?
PTO is valued by dividing your annual salary by 260 working days to get a daily rate, then multiplying by the number of PTO days. A job with 5 more days of PTO at $75,000 salary is worth approximately $1,442 more per year.
Is this calculator free?
Yes — completely free with no account or signup required.
