This is Anne's year! She finally broke through the "glass ceiling"—meaning she has reached an executive-level position with her company, with a salary upward of $200,000. Recently a competitor firm has approached her offering her $15,000 less in salary, but the job would come with an upgraded car, memberships in two country clubs of her choice, an additional two weeks paid vacation with use of the company's villa in Jamaica, and paid financial
counseling. With respect to compensation, Anne
A) will not consider this offer because it is not worth $15k less in salary, and it would impact her ability for future offers.
B) may consider this offer because it is not just about compensation, it is about the job content.
