Hey, I am from bay area, and I recently accepted a really good offer from wayfair in boston just submitted my h1b docs to them. Then, couple of days later, I ended up getting Amazon offer. I am broken between Wayfair and I gave them my approval, but the amazon offer is pretty competitive as well and within the AWS department. Do you think i should just decline Amazon offer and stick with Wayfair approval? Thoughts?
Boston is cold af Take amazon and get 🍌
It'll be fine to renege. Don't let that factor into your decision. Companies have tight offer deadlines so that they can leverage your fear and then guilt.
How many people go to Wayfair from Amazon? Probably < 10. How many people go to Amazon from Wayfair? Probably > 100.
Personally call the recruiter and let them know your decision as soon as possible.
Pick the offer you like more of course. WTF
I would reneg and take Amazon. Great company to have in your resume out of school and a place where you learn about scalability fast. If you prefer Amazon to Wayfair, you should take Amazon. What’s the worst that can happen? Wayfair may get disappointed and put you in a blacklist. But do you think you will even go to Wayfair after Amazon? There are a ton of opportunities and there will be another such companies when you feel you want to move. The only criteria you should consider is whether you want Amazon more than Wayfair. If you were asking you signed an offer with Google but got an offer from Microsoft, Amazon or whatever, then I would suggest to take Google offer as it is often the destination workplace for many and you don’t want to be blacklisted from such a company.
Amazon WLB is worse than Wayfair WLB. But our stock just plummeted so buyer beware.
Goto amazon. Technically amazon would be lot better than wayfair
