Sugar land RN offer opinions needed

by Tatet98

I need your opinions before I would accept the job offer. I have 6 years medsurg RN experience and ive been offered a base salary of 30.70 at 1 of the sugar land hospitals do you think the pay is reasonable enough? The only drawback i have is my current salary is just a little bit lower from that offer but ive been wanting to move to the sugarland neighborhood. any opinions with regards to the offer would be very much appreciated.

I think it's reasonable. Also, Sugar Land is a great suburb! If I'm not inner loop, that is my next place to go!

The impression I get is that the smaller satellite hospitals wont be paying as much as their med center counterparts.

That's just my theory though...

They don't. There's a small 'med center differential' that gets eaten up QUICK by commute, parking, etc.

What is the commute from Houston inner loop (med district) to Sugarland for night shift (around 6pm)? Taking in all of the employment options for the area but I still really want to live in the inner loop. Thanks!
