Hi Folks. Just recieved my offer letter from Amazon for the L5 Business Analyst role located in Seattle. They're offering me a base of 95k and 25 stocks with relocation of 2.65k Sign on is standard. I'm going with 4 years of Work experience. Can you help me in the negotiation process? I definitely feel I've to get a 12-15% increment in the Base and 10 more stocks atleast. Your views? #businessanalyst #amazon #l5
Send an email appreciating the offer and let them know what value you will bring in with you and that you are expecting more given your experience. Give them a range of TC you would want to be in. And wait and see what they come back with. Never accept the first offer
Thank you so much. So you feel 12% would be a good increase compared to the original base offer?
What is the yr1 and yr2 sign on. Amazon will look at the entire TC not just base.
I thought there was a hiring freeze in Amazon business !
Nope, they've been hiring.
Which location?
Seattle
A business analyst is a non-tech role. There is no growth within this job family and usually people move to a BIE or PM (both also non-tech but higher paying). What do you do at AmEx?
Are BIEs tech or non tech?
Yeah that's the plan I have. To grow into a BIE or DS role.
What are you doing at Amex? What's current TC?
Wait L5 and not even six figure base? Seems low
Not for BA
Do you think 110k base would be apt for L5 BA with 4 YOE?
Seems low for L5 with 4 years exp.
Do you think 110k base would be apt for L5 BA with 4 YOE?
Honestly you are asking the wrong questions and forum. You should be asking what are your other alternatives? If they are not greater then $116k then amazon wins. Doesn’t matter what other roles get paid if you don’t have an offer or are unable to secure interviews to get an offer
Base can go somewhere between 105-110. Rest everything looks good, BA are not a high paid job family at Amazon
