So I’m looking for a new job and would love to improve my net salary. In my current job I have less gross salary, but more net compensation. I earn €2615 gross and receive €2205 net. All the rest is pretty much the same except no eco cheques and no mobile phone plan in the new offer which I have now. Should I be happy with this offer?
