Hi - I am expecting offer from Alexa Q&A (Bay Area location), SWE L6. I don't have production level NLP background (know basic theories) but the recruiter said that it shouldn't be an issue. Feedback I got is that the rounds went very well. (a) what's the TC I should expect ? According to levels, it's close to 400K. I am expecting 600K range. Is that feasible? I have 15 YOE Exp. (current TC is in 500 range). (b) Ignoring TC, does anyone have any positive experience (from the standpoint of quality of work, WLB, management chain, etc.) with the Alexa Q&A group? #amazonaws #Alexa #swe #aws
400k is within L5 band now
600k for L6?? Levels.fyi indicates it would be a stretch and may be if you include the sign on bonus. Which is only for first two years anyway
I heard the joke around Amazon regarding the Alexa team goes something like this: “I like my manager so much that I would follow them to the Alexa team.”
