Amazon vs DoorDash vs BCG Platinion (final numbers)

May 4, 2021 31 Comments

Really struggling with making a decision here. Please please give me your honest thoughts. I am looking for long term career growth. 4 YOE

Amazon (L5):
Base:124k
TC: 167k

DoorDash (P4):
Base: 122k
TC: 147k

BCG Platinion (Senior Consultant):
Base: 150k
Annual bonus: 22.5k - 45k
TC: 172.5k - 195k

Should I go with growth and nice team (DoorDash), or money (BCG) or decent money but difficult culture (Amazon)?

    Anything but Amazon. Doordash has the highest upside if they can exit profitably, but it's a risk.

  • If your goal is to stay in tech, go to tech.

    Also I'm assuming you're an ENG... BCG seems to have the most votes and I'm unclear why...

    BCG does not hold water beyond their consultancy services IMHO.
    Amazon as a brand will be of much greater value if you're staying in tech long term. Not to mention Amazon is a forever stock.

      I will be doing a tech role that is not SDE for a niche software but want to expand my horizon too beyond this tool

    • Well I guess only you know the specifics of the tool, marketability, and exit opps from specialization in it

      But my vote is still Amazon

      Good luck and congrats on your offers!

  • If you’re moving from Deloitte to BCG you’ll have a much easier transition than DD. If you want to be in tech for the long haul, go with Amazon or DD.
