Need advice opinion on choosing between two job offers... One company has horrible reputation and it's...?

not too far away from the truth. The second company has a stellar reputation, excellent benefits -- the typical sweet benefits package. Both jobs it turns out are essentially the same - glorified receptionist/ office/property mgr jobs. The base salary for job A is lower than I'm used to, but includes the possibility to make a bonus and an apartment. Now I'm hearing horror stories about their apts and mgmt. I work there and I've seen some disorganization but no horr still $$$ maybe very high. Yet if we haven't even gotten started and I'm being slightly stiffed then who's to say where this whole thing is going? In initial discussions the job was to include higher pay, commission %26amp; an apt... now it's low w/ a capped bonus + maybe an apt depending on availability. Overall in terms of money, the offers potentially excellent but I was led to believe this job was a entry level sales position and it's just a glorified asst/receptionist/ mgr gig. That's two slight deceptions, isn't it?Need advice opinion on choosing between two job offers... One company has horrible reputation and it's...?
So while you still have this job, start searching for the right one. There are plenty of opportunities out there, and with reputable firms. But get all offers in writing. If they won't commit to their promises, keep searching. Life is too short to work for cheating employers.
