Which is a better option of all the roles? All roles are people leadership roles. All are paying enough money to have nice standard of living. It’s about culture, and growth. Any suggestions?
Nice choice to make. Are you already L7 at amazon? If so, Walmart director sounds like a right direction or if you want lateral move, google L6 is a good choice. Another option is to stay at amazon and get on to director path which can be longer timeline
Wayfair has low pay and worthless titles. It’s likely worse than your current Amazon role
Already L7 at Amazon with TC of 250k, all others have TC above 350k
Can you share couple of reasons each on why you want to continue working for your current employer “Walmart/Wayfair/Amazon/Google etc, and why you wouldn’t? I know Amazon really well, and culture has already in Day2 mode followed by slow death, whether Bezos realize that or not. It will not die immediately but it will eventually... Walmart is changing but if not they will die even faster than Amazon. Companies like Etsy, Chewy, Wayfair, Instacart, Uber, google shopping etc are slowly taking away market share of e-commerce. Google can provide the eco-system to all the retailers from ads, cloud storage, YouTube, android phone (Way past Apple IOS), and one platform to buy anything.. @amazon - Some bunch of idiots got Director role because of their mommies at higher level. Mommies see kids not talent and work ethics!
Obviously walmart director is the more senior role, they also promote very easily
Walmart director is definitely not the more senior role
Walmart also does not promote easily. Not since they implemented forced banding.
Walmart director to grow in scope.
I'd say Walmart Director. 1) I'm biased, 2) there's a lot of places to go and learn and stay in company.
Walmart directors are basically team leads. But it's a great job
On the business side they're like team leads. On the Tech side they manage a team of managers that manage teams. There are exceptions, but that's the norm.
Walmart directors have the responsibility of 10M$ budget on an avg. Not a hard and fast rule but that's generally what I have seen around here. If you are focused and think that you have polished ppl skills, Walmart is the place for you .
That's about 20 people. An eng manager at best.
I just quoted the lower end, but then I'm not marketing here. I would only venture to say, there's a paradigm shift in tech roles recently in WM and Director has a lot of responsibilities.
Amazon L7 maps to senior director at wayfair
Wayfair doesn't have senior directors anymore. But in the case of OP, it sounds like Wayfair L5 will pay a lot more than if OP stayed at Amazon L7.
A lot of that is in stock, not sure I want to be sitting on a lot of furniture stock (low margin for companies that make profits, luxury item) if the market pulls back, just saying.
Do yourself a favor and search “technical incompetence” for Wayfair, you sure you want to work here? 9-5 but man...
Wow... 😅
