Got an offer from Amazon They are not increasing the base from my current CTC, mentioning that Amazon stocks are growing. Are they lowballing me ? Base : 40L INR || Joining : 5L INR || Shares: 100K USD (4 yrs) || Performance: 30% YOE: 8 yrs total - 5 yrs SDE at Amazon, - 3 Yrs PM at a startup
YOE?
How many years of experience and where?
I wasn’t aware Amazon paid performance bonuses
This is news. Thanks. Will definitely use that to negotiate
They don't. I bet this guy doesn't have an offer
He is talking about India. May be the policy there is different?
Amazon doesn't pay performance bonus to PMs in India
They know you’ll leave before year 2. Don’t take it, the stocks vest unequally.
Thanks , how high can I expect the base to go ? I have asked for moving 40 to 55L; is that unrealistic?
I'm in India too
There's no performance bonus
Which team are you part of & at what level ? Could this be team n level specific?
There isn’t any Perf Bonus. And the numbers aren’t too low for PM. It’s too low if it’s a TPM. Amazon pays heavy for tech roles. SDE’s ranges r higher than TPM’s and SDM is at the top of the food chain.
TPM making more than PM .. can't be true... I thought TPM role is like program managers in other companies.. are you referring to PM- technical ... which are meant for teams like AWS ?
Wow, didn’t know TPMs makes more than PMs here.
Very low
