They didn't mention to me from the beginning that this was an hourly paid position, not salaried. That's a big deal breaker for me, but there were other issues that I couldn't get past either. No raises, except for cost of living, and the last one they had was a couple years ago and it was a 1% cost of living increase. The insurance didn't cover as much as my current insurance, and even though parking wasn't as much as what I thought earlier, I still couldn't get past the idea of having to pay to park on a monthly basis.

So, I think I made a wise decision. I just feel this isn't just a lateral move, but it's a backwards pass!
