I have an offer from AWS for L4.(Seattle) TC- 166 YOE- 3 I tried to negotiate for L5 but no luck. Should i wait for 6-12months and try for a L5 or should I join as a L4 and get promoted to a L5?
Take the offer and grow within the organization.
Moving from L4 to L5 within Amazon is a big deal since L5 in many ways is considered the “tenured level” while an L4 would be managed out if they don’t get promoted in ~3 years. With that in mind, it takes at least a year (best case scenario) to go from L4 to L5 só if that’s too long for you then you may want to decline and reapply as L5.

Declined it and a recruiter will reach out back in a few days with a L5 opportunity. At least this is the case for me.
I wonder if I could do this with a little over 1.5 yoe
