Offer comparison

Employment consultations in Germany often stall at the moment two letters look “close enough.” This page outlines the dimensions we use when Systemlayerpath facilitates a comparison.

Decision support

Compare layers, not vibes

We separate cash, risk, and lifestyle into visible rows so a strong brand story cannot hide a weak bonus floor — and so a quieter employer is not dismissed before the pension match is valued.

Dimensions

What goes on the scorecard

Cash path

Base, guaranteed variable, realistic bonus attainment, and one-time payments converted to year-one and year-three views.

Equity & long-term

Grant size, vesting, cliff, refreshers if known, and a note on liquidity realism for private companies in Germany.

Benefits in euros

Job ticket, childcare support, employer pension, insurance top-ups — only after they receive a cash-equivalent estimate.

Contract risk

Probation, notice, non-compete, IP, relocation repayment, and mobility language with a plain-English severity tag.

Life fit

Commute, remote policy, team stage, and personal constraints you choose to weight — never invented by us.

When to book

Signals you need facilitation

  • Two or more letters with overlapping deadlines
  • Equity that you cannot map to cash without help
  • A partner or family decision that needs a written memo
  • A counteroffer window shorter than a week
