I have an offer out and am wondering how do I establish baseline. For example, does Amazon pay their L7 managers the same as they pay in Seattle? How much can I expect to get paid in Austin for an Amazon L7 manager role
Do you currently have an offer from Amazon Austin for level 7? Is it for engineering role?
I just took a job at Amazon Austin and from what I can tell my TC is pretty much in line with SDE2 from Seattle; maybe on the lower side of the band but definitely take home and savings will vastly exceed my counter parts in Seattle
There should be no difference in take home for same salary between Seattle and Austin, as there is no state tax in both states. Cost of living is low in Austin for sure compared with Seattle.
Salaries in Seattle are on par with BA. Now answer your question.
Not true at Amazon. BA is about 15% higher across the board.
Salaries in the Bay Area, Seattle, Austin, and Houston appear to be all about the same to me.
How does DFW compare?
Weirdly, DFW seems to pay about 30% less...
What's your current comp and yoe in homeaway? Are you a manager?
Funny how the OP is asking Seattle and Austin, but Seattleites wanna compare themselves to Bay Area.
Donโt wanna move to Bay Area. Netflix had reached out but right now, I donโt wanna uproot my family and move to Bay Area
I don't see anything funny. OP is sensible and realistic. Many move from bay area to Austin too.
Whats your offer @Austin? SDE2 makes around 220k and sde 3 around 300k in Austin.
Same
