perhaps you could do me the courtesy and answer my earlier question before I respond again.sultan123 said:
But how? a difference of 4k in net isn't that much over a yearNCC1701-A said:
To me, the difference is very far off.sultan123 said:
What is odd about not far off?NCC1701-A said:
You have an odd definition of "not far off" and will most likely still need permission from your new employer.sultan123 said:
Your right but even with tax on £210x12 surely thats still not far off from the overall income from 88kNCC1701-A said:
Don't forget you will need to be pay tax etc on your private work plus probably need permission from your employer to work elsewhere.sultan123 said:

If its all equal can you negotiate with the higher offer, if they are only matching the lower offer's benefits?sultan123 said:

Make a list of the 3 jobs, and compare salary, death benefit, health care, hours, commute, holiday etc basically anything that is a comparable to you to get a more overall comparison.
Everything between 3 offers is equal bar the differences in gross salary so I want to know the net difference monthly and yearly between the 2.
Just thinking of other ways for you to compare if it matters to you the difference of 1k (which over 12 months isn't really a lot). Increased benefits on 80k to 88k could be a big improvement maybe and make it easier for you?
The 80k offer is less stress whereas the 88k is more stress. Both of these are PAYE.
I do some private work every month which brings in £210 (self income).
Therefore if I do my private work of 210x12 months then the net annual pay from 88k isn't much for stress I am thinking?
I'm curious, what £80k+ jobs require no arithmetic competence.0 - 
            
I think it's because you are happy with a rough 'not far off' (which to me is actually far off), but wanted to know exactly the difference between 87k and 88k, rather than roughly.sultan123 said:

I am referring to net yearly take home. 4k overall between 80k vs 87k and 88k isn't that much for stress. It is not much more a month.74jax said:

            At these salary levels, which can be considered as "enough" or even generous, whether at £80k or £88k, I'd be basing the choice on factors other than the 10% more or less in financial reward - company culture, training, development, progression opportunities (or not), work-life balance, hours aligned with partner, ability to have school holidays off work, etc. The actual things that are important will vary between one person and another but, hopefully, you get my drift.

Which is why I've said a couple of times to list everything, I know you have said they are all exactly the same, so at least you know the 88k job isn't offering benefits in relation to salary the same as the 80k job.
But what you do with that info is up to you.
Add to your list responsibility, management etc. Give each row a point score. On paper there will be clear winner, it's then your choice how you use that.

            The July NI limits seem to be increasing net pay?0
 - 
            
That is the whole point of them. The amount you can earn before paying NI is increasing so those already earning enough to pay NI will pay less.sultan123 said:The July NI limits seem to be increasing net pay?
Less NI deductions = more net pay.
What did you think it meant???0 -
