Hi folks, Would love your thoughts on the L4 Data Scientist offer for Arlington, VA (was down-leveled from L5 to L4) Base: ~135k TC first year comp (5% first year RSU vesting included): ~180K YOE: 5 (~3 in the US) Current TC: 110K #datascience #amazon
Not the worst. Do you have an alternative offers or interviews coming up?
In my experience (different job family), you could likely ask for a higher sign-on bonus for years 1-2.
I think you could ask for an additional 10k on the sign on for each year (1-2), and tell them you will accept it immediately. Amazon doesn’t rescind offers in case you are worried; so no risk in asking. They could shorten your deadline if you ask for more money though.
Good offer and nice jump
