WATCHING A WORKPLACE DURING AN INTERVIEW
Salary and benefits/perks are important, but don't forget about morale: this job is where you're going to spend a third of your life. Taste the coffee, and watch the receptionist. If the coffee's bad and the receptionist is stressed, it's not a good place to work. Either ask for more money, or consider turning down any job offer from that company.
