Will Microsoft pay as much as Amazon? I have most of my career in Microsoft tech where I am pretty strong. I have been at Amazon for a while but I don't feel like I belong here. Plus when I was hired I was down leveled one step due to some internal politics. I was told clearly about that once I joined but it was too late by then to be able to do something about it. That experience also left a bad taste. I am doing reasonably well at Amazon too but I just don't enjoy the role too much and sometimes I feel that I don't fit in. I was wondering if Microsoft will pay as well as Amazon does? As the single earning member of a family I have to put money first in the priority list unfortunately. #amazon #microsoft
If ur priority is money why don’t u try startups or other companies rather than Microsoft and Amazon? Just my thought!
What is your comp break down? Also benefits at MS are like $30k
I think MS pays more than amazon.
Microsoft will match , plus you will get a nice increment over that paltry 160k base you would be making at Amazon.
I am based in London so the bases and TC here are about 30%lower than Seattle or general Stateside.
Microsoft will beat your amazon comp if they want you.
MS can easily match pay at Amazon. Obviously it depends on how much they want you, how well you do in the interview etc. I've experienced this personally and as a hiring manager as well.
Easy to match Amazon. And then surpass it with the benefits package. It adds to your TC significantly.
Lol! So many contradictory views on the same thread!
I don’t think they will pay as much. But your family will probably like you better if you are happy, and you too will not get irritated with them as much
