Now, keep your head up, smile like you are Joker and learn as much as possible.
Start to fund:
-savings/rain day fund
-401k
-Roth
why:? time is one your side... rule of 72/compound interest
Also backup money allows you to go to work as a pleasure, not because you have to.
You will thank me in 40 years.
Oh, a big corporation is usually not that flexible in compensation.
I know 3 cases where the first job was the bridge to a much better/technically challenged/mind workout job after 3mts, 7 mts, 1 year...
Oh, and Congrats!
This x 100,000. Don't be that person who gets a starting career position outside of college, then goes out and buys a brand new car, goes out every weekend, buys a house on a 30-year mortgage with a payment that's 50% of their takehome pay, etc. while having 50k in student loans because you'll never get out of it. Pay off all debts, save an e-fund of 6-12 months of expenses, and put 15% away for retirement. Don't go into any debt, ever.
