Facebook DE offer (Menlo Park) : TC 187 Amazon SDE offer (Seattle) : TC 146 Apart from the total compensation, which offer is more valuable considering career growth? Is a DE position at FB better than SDE at Amazon? Would appreciate some perspective!
TC Is not that different considering the cost of living in both cities ( that being said negotiate the Amazon offer ). SDE have usually better options than DE when it comes to positions but then again I think Facebook > Amazon. It all depends on what you value more.
Don’t go down the DE path unless you love the work. Also, 187 in the Bay is really less then 146 in Seattle. Are these L4/IC4 positions? I’d do SDE at Amazon for a year or two and then move to Facebook/Google as an SWE.
go to Amazon. If you ever want to switch to SDE at FB, you’ll still need to go through a full loop. At least get some good SDE experience at Amazon
What is DE ?
