Got the standard amazon return offer (~155 TC Seattle, equal to around 170 SF). My team is surprisingly chill so I don’t mind returning. But I value TC and WLB (mostly WLB). Which other places should I be aware of where I could leverage a higher new grad offer and not die of shitty WLB? Current sh...Read more
Being in a non-AWS org at Amazon, I’ve built many services based on quite a selection of AWS offerings, and I’m wondering would it be weird if I am interviewing other tech giants on systems design and I describe my solution based on those AWS offerings?

Bored at Amazon, team is trash, L6 promo is at least 18mo. Even then with TT and crazy stock growth not worth much. What companies are worth jumping to? What places will give senior opportunity (real ones, not LinkedIn/Bloomberg “senior”)? Interested in best growth, less so about immediate TC - ei...Read more
I recently got 2 offers, one from AWS, the other from a pre-ipo company(B). TC AWS is 15% less according to the current stock price,. Also the (B) company's base is 20% more . It's kind of the best two offers I could get in my city. TC/WLB wise, (B) makes more sense. But in the other hand AWS's i...Read more

Have already been working on the company, still have a ton to do but is difficult while working a demanding job. Despise working at aws and is taking a toll on my mental health. What should I do? — Update: I quit Tc:200
Hey everyone, Just wanted to give some perspective. I was bounced out of AWS on the RIF. My total comp was 750. I’ve really been soul searching trying to figure out what’s next. I just received an offer for a place I really want to work. Problem…it’s a 500k pay cut. I have other interviews going, n...Read more
