Amazon L6 Senior Research Scientist Compensation in Bay Area

Expecting an offer. What is the compensation range? 5+ years of experience working on applied machine learning and PhD in a math heavy field.

If you get less than $420k you're getting screwed. Also, they should be offering you L6 Applied Scientist with your background. But they won't. Because they're Amazon.

Thanks. Do you know of compensation difference between research scientist and applied scientist? They interviewed me for research scientist but there was coding round.

In alexa i find job roles are interchangable as far as i know. In reference to applied vs research. In my team both the families two similar stuff.
