It was the first offer out of I don't know how many interviews. This one took three interviews. I kinda figured I'd rather be employed than not. I did not know about the parking and bicycle situation. Initially my plan was to use public transit but that didn't work out too well.
I wish that parking subsidy was counted as taxable income. At $100/year for employees when market rate is $14/day or $275/mo for general public in the same lot, that's a subsidy of over $3000/year. Even public transit users don't get that that much, maximum is $230/mo per IRS regulations IIRC.
