Current L3, TC 190 at Google. Turned down 300k offer from Amazon Sde2, since I think I can reach L4 in 6 months Was it the right decision ?
Well you already had reached L4 at Amazon with SDE2.
Things people do for prestige
Who wants more money when you can get more work
You won’t make 300k as a newly promoted L4 either. But if you’re happy with your team and like Google then I can understand not taking the risk of moving. From what people say about Amazon here there’s a good chance you’d burn out on them in a few months anyway.
Blind exaggerates. Workload is not that different. Just a higher chance of managers you can't get along with in one vs the other.
A 🦅 in the 🖐 is worth two in the bush
Why would amazon offer you 300k coming as L3 from google?
The interview went really well
Amazon SDE II total comp top band is 220k or so. How are they offering 300k?
I'm calling shenanigans.
Amazon doesn’t offer 300k otherwise u are crazy to give up a guaranteed 100k raise
Google is better. After two years you have to deal with terrible comp structure anyway.
No. You won't make 300K even after you get promoted to L4. At best you'll make slightly higher base, with no additional stock grant.
Depends on teams and opportunities.
Depends on TC
