“Take job offer with reservations”

Accepted job with lower salary and shorter contract, now regretting relocation costs and limited benefits

What I wish I knew
"To negotiate salary and contract terms more aggressively"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider weighing job offer pros and cons carefully, and don't rush into a decision"
