First job offer out of college. What do i do?

Background,

Based in BOSTON.

On F1 visa.

University of Massachusetts.

3.4 GPA.

Paid internship in summer 2014. Was paid $40/hr. Manager was a jerk and behaved like one when i turned down his part time offer for the project I worked on with him and gave me a negative feedback. Hint : It's a big ass company that pays over 130k to its new hires.

May 2015. I graduate.

Not a lot of interviews.(5) Rejection from Microsoft and Apple after onsites. I go back to my country depressed.

Come back on july 10th. Start spamming resumes again.

Lo-behold. 9 interviews in one week including one at google ( yay). 3 rejections after HR because " we are looking for someone with more experience" and two " we dont sponsor visa( hello, I am on a 27 month OPT , i dont need a visa ).

Out of 6 HR interviews I cleared, I have two technical interviews including google ( yay!) lined up for monday .

I have given 4 tehcnical interviews after coming back on 10th. Got invited for face to face interviews for all 4. Got rejected at one, bad experience. Gave another one on monday. Got an offer today and have 2 more lined up.

This is how the offer looks like,

Base Salary : 84000 .

RSUs : 2500 units ( company's stock is on a roller coaster and has been trading between 18-30 in last 6 months)

Unlimited Pay Time Off.

401k sucks but yeah.

Rated as one of the best places to work at in boston ( Awesome awesome office). but the company has made small losses in last 8 quarters

So yeah out of 4, I have one rejection ( screw them , rude people) , one offer ( I guess I will love it here) , 2 upcoming onsites ( world's largest asset management firmed based in Wilmington,DE) and Cerner ( they are flying me in on 20th august for the experience cerner day)

Is the salary good enough for Boston for a new hire? I know I wll properly get a better paying job but I dont value money much as much as a visa sponsorship in future!

I am going to keep interviewing but I just wanted to know if the offer i have is good for Boston.

YAY I AM HAPPY i know sound like a teenage guy who has had his first kiss but yeah whatever :D
