Basically title. I’ve gotten several good job offers for wayyy more than what I was being paid previously. Company 1 gave a higher offer with a $1 raise every 3 months, I actually already accepted their offer but while filling out their onboarding paperwork I saw that they’re requiring me to sign an arbitration agreement which gives me pause. They’re very corporate so I’m not really surprised.
Company 2 is the other main job I’ve been looking at, they’re a smaller company offering me $0.50 less with a review after 6 months. They seem to have a better work environment but the pay is lower.
I didn’t actually reject the second company’s offer yet, should I ask the first company if they can remove the arbitration agreement? If they won’t, should I just bite the bullet and sign or refuse and take the Company 2’s offer? I guess these are pretty standard practice for companies nowadays, but my last job didn’t require one. Appreciate any advice!
