Comp for SDE 2 in Amazon Toronto?

What is the offered range for SDE 2 in Amazon Toronto? Would be great if you can break it down to (base + RSU + sign-on) and mention which year and month the offer was made. YOE: 9 TC: $50K I work for a non FAANG company in Central Europe, so, the low TC. Got an offer from Amazon Toronto and looking to level up my TC.

More details please? Have you experienced it yourself or heard from some one?

This person doesn't know what they are talking about. L5 TC would be about 150 CAD

Not sure about the breakup but I would assume something like 50 units RSU(4 years ), 125K base and 50K sign-in (over 2 years)

We had someone join our team about 1.5 years ago with similar YOE as yours - he got: 130K CAD base, 150 shares vesting over 4 years (share price was around 1000 USD/Share at the time). Not sure about Signing Bonus. I'm SDE II with 3 YOE, my TC was 187k CAD last year.
