<prompt> Human: So my small company offered me the director of IT position. They talked about getting me a car. Another worker has a car they they purchased for her. aka in her name. I would rather counter offer with helping out with my student loans. Anyone business savvy know if an LLC can write off student loans like they can a employee car?? I think it would be considered a business expense...recruitment incentive? Any input appreciated.  <response>: Honestly its a bit unusual for a company to buy someone a car and put it into their name. Are you sure about that?There is certainly nothing wrong with a signing bonus but rarely is it offered to someone who already works there.Frankly, Im a bit worried that the company would spend money on getting someone a car for a director of IT role. I could see it for sales.I would instead negotiate to have them pay you an ongoing equipment stipend that can be used for anything you want for 700month. The obvious fact is that you can get yourself a nice new car, cover the monthly costs and still have more left over to cover your cell phone, some equipment to work easily from home etc. Then tell them to take the extra and give it to you in your budget to improve the quality of your new teams work equipment.
