Not necessarily in that order.

Yeah, that's pretty close, but I'm not sure location is as big a deal for me since I generally know what I'm getting into when I start. I've had one job move locations on me, but it wasn't that big a deal since it was only a few miles and to a nicer facility.

My 3 factors in no particular order are
Money
work environment
security/stability.

Security/stability could be rolled into work environment, but I've worked places where the work, people and management were great, but the stability and security was lacking, so I'm putting that separate.

The ranking can vary as the factors vary. Much better security and work environment might make it easier to live with a little less money. Much more money might make it easier to live with reduced quality of work environment or security/stability, etc....
