Amazon L5 product manager offer - was interviewed for L6 leader role YOE - 10 Base - $139K Cash bonus - 25K RSU - 25 location NYC is it worth considering? please let me know your thoughts. Current TC - 162(146 + bonus) thank you all!
Base is good. Lowballed in RSU's and cash bonus. Cash bonus can easily go to 40k-50k.
Wow! Really! I am very inexperienced with this :(
RSU's could go about 45
Fair enough- is the 25k across two years?
Yes, correct
Ok that’s too low. Push for 25k per year and little more RSU
I see..thanks for your help!
Super low. I think you can hit 200tc in ny for l5 pm
Where do you think the opportunity is? More on the base side or rsu/cash side?
Bonus and RSU. Your base is very high.
wth! why even grind LC now
Not sure if I understand..
It isn’t clear if this is even a tech role.
Depends on if you need a new job and if you’re ok watching the person next to you doing the same job make double total comp.
Thanks!
Agree that this is low, and that it tracks closer to L4. I'm in NYC for L5 design and my TC is 210. The bands are very wide, so you'll see L5 people from 2 - 10 YOE. More than the salary, I would consider if you will enjoy the role considering you expected to be L6, and if you're okay having peers that are only a couple years out of school.
Definitely something to consider, thanks!
Don’t take L5 PM. All internal transfers are L6 and above. Forget about the money. You growth will be capped if you don’t get promoted within a year.
Thank you! What do you mean by “all internal transfers are L6 and above”? Do you mean promotions?
This feels low. Is the RSU really 25? That’s an L4 compensation
Yes, 25..I also felt that they are low balling me..
Personally think base can be 150k. RSU at 50 too. Just check the compensation section of Leetcode for examples. Maybe they gave you an SDE 1 role, just maybe.
