Getting Paid What You Are Worth
Career decisions — negotiating an offer, comparing two job packages, pricing freelance work — all come down to numbers that are easy to underestimate in the moment. These ten calculators turn those decisions into clear comparisons.
The Negotiation Math
Say two candidates for the same role differ only in one thing: one negotiates their starting offer up by $5,000, the other accepts the initial number. Both then get typical 3% annual raises.
| Time Elapsed | Cumulative Extra Earnings |
|---|---|
| After 1 year | $5,000 |
| After 5 years | $29,000 |
| After 10 years | $67,000 |
One negotiation conversation, repeated forward through years of raises, ends up worth far more than the initial $5,000 gap suggests. Try your own numbers in the Salary Negotiation Calculator.
Comparing multiple job offers with different benefits, not just salary? The Job Offer Comparison Calculator normalizes salary, bonus, and common benefits into one comparable total — useful since salary alone can be misleading when benefits differ significantly.
