In modern times, an immense number of people believe that remuneration is not the first significant part of choosing a job. To an extent,
this
 can be considered one of the parts, I completely disagree with
this
 statement, and in
this
 essay, I will discuss the reasons for
this
 and provide examples to support my viewpoint. Generally speaking, there is a wide range of reasons why people believe that salary is not at all. People enjoy their jobs when they are doing the
work
 that they want.
Hence
, personal satisfaction is the factor that matters.
For instance
, if a doctor works in a high-profile hospital in a city, where he gets a handsome amount of salary, but does not enjoy his
work
 because he is not getting to experience different types of patients and cannot experiment with his skills as he would be doing if he were in a rural area. His skills are being restricted. Job satisfaction is,
therefore
, important for the person to give his fullest in the field.
Secondly
, a vital factor to see is the ambience of the workplace. The colleagues with whom he is going to
work
, and the employer, should be cooperative, understanding, and friendly and make up a good team so that it is easy for the person to
work
 with and feel comfortable and relaxed.
Finally
, comes the reputation of the company or workplace. A good rapport in the market and with the customers is necessary to achieve success in future;
otherwise
, growth will be hampered. In conclusion, the aforementioned factors should be kept in mind when choosing a job.
According to
 me, salary of course matters, but it is not only the thing that should be considered.
