Important Considerations

Before Taxes

These calculations show gross pay (before taxes and deductions). Your actual take-home pay will be lower after federal, state, and local taxes, plus any benefits deductions.

Benefits Value

Remember to factor in benefits when comparing jobs: health insurance, retirement contributions, paid time off, and other perks add significant value to your total compensation.
