I just got an offer letter that I think I’m going to accept. It’s a 1099 position with a $50k salary, no healthcare benefits, but 30 days of PTO annually.
The PTO is a huge, huge benefit for me and it’s worth the extra money I’ll have to shell out for my own health insurance, imo (thankfully I’m very healthy, so I can go with a catastrophic plan for right now). I wish I had asked for a little more pay, because I was making $50k a year ago and since then my cost of living has gone up a lot and I have more experience. But I have had awful luck with jobs since moving to a new area and I didn’t want to risk asking for too much and being turned down. I really need a stable income and a job I’m happy about. The workplace culture seems like a perfect fit for me. I think I’m going to accept the job. (I’ve also interviewed with 4 other companies in the area that I turned down and quit 2 others, so I think I have a good perspective of roughly how poor the industry is for my job in this area. I’m not just choosing the first offer I’ve had.)
I have interviews scheduled for Monday and Thursday. Should I email them to cancel? Or should I go anyways and then tell them “thanks but no thanks”?
Reasons to cancel: - I’d be wasting their time - If they don’t meet me, they won’t remember me very well, which means I may have a better chance re-applying in the future if they don’t remember me as a person who turned them down
Reasons to go: - Explore my other options - I could send them a really nice email to explain that I really liked them, but I decided to go somewhere else. Maybe that’s networking?
Also, I don’t have an exact start date. They have to put together a caseload for me that they expect to be ready by the end of the month. The longer I wait to accept the job offer, the more that would get pushed back. (They did not tell me that, but I know that’s what would happen)
So should I cancel my interviews I have scheduled next week?
Edit: I am 90% sure that I’m going to accept the job, my biggest question is how to maintain the best relationship that I can with these people that I set up interviews with. I want to live in this area for the rest of my life. So the chances of me eventually wanting a job from these places in a few years is entirely possible. Do I turn down these companies now or after an interview?
