Job Value Calculator Section

Use the calculator below to apply the refined (normalized) equations from the article. Adjust the sliders and input your values to see how different factors influence your decision.

Step 1: Define Your Compensation Range (for Normalization)

Min. Acceptable Salary (C_min): $

Max. Salary for Normalization (C_max):

C_max is automatically set to the higher of the 'New Opportunity Salary' and 'Current Salary' (or C_min if both are lower). Current calculated C_max: ---

Step 2: Set Your Personal Value Constants (V-values, 0 to 1)

Value of Compensation (V_c): 0.50

Value of Role/Growth (V_r): 0.50

Value of Alignment (V_a): 0.50

Step 3: Evaluate the New Opportunity

Actual Offered Salary (C_actual): $

Role Impact/Growth (ΔR Raw Score 0-10): 5.0

0-1: Significant Down-level / Regression
2-4: Slight Down-level / Stagnation
5: Lateral / Maintains Status Quo
6-8: Good Growth / Up-level Potential
9-10: Excellent Growth / Significant Up-level

Alignment (A Raw Score 0-10): 5.0 (0 = Totally Misaligns, 5 = Neutral/Okay, 10 = Perfectly Aligns)

Step 4: Evaluate Your Current Role

Current Salary (C_{cur_actual}): $

Current Role Impact/Growth (ΔR_cur Raw Score 0-10): 5.0 (Set to 5 as default as it is your current role, use the same scoring as above)

Current Alignment (A_cur Raw Score 0-10): 6.0 (Use same 0-10 scale as New Opportunity's Alignment)

Burnout Factor (B - 0.001=Low, 1=High): 0.300

Step 5: Results

New Opportunity Value (V_o): ---

Current Role Value (V_cur): ---
