If you want to know what your company values you at (what you really make), you cant look at the gross income number.

It is your gross income + ALL of your benefits (which normally are very expensive). Alot of ppl dont understand this and think they are under paid.

For example
You make 60K salary currently, another company offers you 70k, but at your current job you get free top of the line health insurance for your fam, 401K (match up to 6%), 2wks vacation. The other company you pay a premium on health insurance, 401k (3% match), 1wk vacay

Then really you probably actually make more at your current job.

Same goes for working for yourself. It is now YOU who has to cover all of those benefits.

If what you can make by yourself or elsewhere doesnt equal your pay plus benefits, then probably should stay put.

But if you think your are under compensated at your current job, be sure to at least do the math to see if you actually are. You may actually be surprised.
