What is more important when you're looking for a new job the money or the benefit's?

Money and benefits are the RESULT of what you do, not the OBJECT.





Look for a job that uses your skills, maintains your interest and makes you feel good about getting up and going to work EVERY day.





You'll be happier, do better and make more money in the long run.





As to the original intent of your question, I'd say that salary and benefits are really just different forms of total compensation. You can easily determine the present value of most employment benefits, like health care or 401K contributions by comparing what you'd have to pay for these things if you bought them on your own.

If we're ruling out the intrinsic things (such as satisfaction with the work you do, those you work with, etc.), I say that you have to consider both. Perhaps not equally, but you'll still need to consider both. For example, chances are if you're making about 40k, your company is paying about 50-52k in TOTAL compensation. Where you lean will depend on whether you're single or have a family. For example, some organizations have child care on site, or have other outsourcing arrangements that will allow you to get back up babysitting services. However, you also have to make sure the money can pay your bills, and that the salary is what it's worth for the work you'll be asked to perform.
Reply:Depends, if you get hurt, do you want to have a lot of bills that your insurance didnt pay or do you want to not have to worry about that and just worry about getting beter?
Reply:I think getting the money is more important because money may lead you to the job and the benefits.
Reply:Of course, go for more money. Most company's benefits are very close in terms of health insurance, life insurance, dental, and vision. The only big difference is the number of paid vacation days( vacation day + sick day + holidays). Beyond money and benefit, you might need to like your job.
Reply:Hey there! Money is good, you never wanna take a job w/ low pay. Benefits are very important though. They take care of your medical, dental, vision, long/short term disability if it were to happen and more. Benefits are probably more important than pay. If you were to miss work due to injury or sickness and you have good benefits package, you'll still get a pretty good share of your income coming in to help. Hope I helped you!
Reply:I think it personally depends on your own situation are you in need of medical benefits and good pay or just one only you know that answer
Reply:neither!!!!!! its the People that matters most...what good is money and benefits, if you gotta work with jerks, morons, and cows....sorry 'bout that...
Reply:Neither. The most important thing is how good the manager is for whom you will work. That is the biggest indicator of job happiness.
