I feel this website gives a good idea https://livingwage.mit.edu/ Chicago - https://livingwage.mit.edu/metros/16980 Charlotte - https://livingwage.mit.edu/metros/16740 There is about a 3-5% increase in expenses in chicago area compared to Charlotte. 2. Property taxes are high around 2.24%, almost 3 times that of North carolina 0.84%. But the public schools are top notch in chicago suburbs. If you look at the top 10 public school districts in the US, 4 of them are from chicago suburbs. https://www.niche.com/k12/search/best-school-districts/ 3.

Weather - There will be a lot of snow days in chicago area starting from oct until feb. I don't know about the weather in NC. Summers are good in chicago, not a lot of natural wonders to go around but the city of chicago to go around during summer. I feel 125-130K plus any difference in reasonable ask. Thank you.. will look into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YeddiBK Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 14 hours ago, Still_Bachelor said: Hi Guys, With my current employer I'm actually making decent money (120K/annum)+ good benefits. Location is NC. I got another offer in chicago which pays only salary. They asked me how much I'm expecting to go work for them. Whats the avg salary I should expect for 7+ years exp in chicago? I'm confused because they don't offer any benefits. P.S: I didn't apply for the position. My old manager here in NC is working for that company now and he initiated this thing. First of all aa company benefits ivvaru ante employees ni baaga chusukuntara ? Even if they give you the salary you ask.. tough time lo second kuda think cheyyakunda layoff chestharemo ? research about ethics and employee satisfaction of that company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
