Amazon L6 Sr. PM Tech Salaries

Applying for L6 PMT job, it seems this is the better one compared to TPM. What is the the salary difference? Is TC of 300 a crazy expectation for Seattle for PM Tech or on low end

Amazon thereyago Jun 7, 2018

I’m an L5 PM non tech and my TC is supposed to be 190k - which is quite a bit less than it will be this year due to stock - so I’d say 300k is in line with L6 tech PM salary.

$300k is above the L6 PMT pay band, and most likely your starting offer will not come very close to reaching that even if you interviewed exceptionally well. $250k is much more likely in that scenario. TPM is very similar to PMT (+/- a few $Ks)

That is correct range for L6 PMT. Thanks for being honest and truthful unlike few morons on this thread who want to exaggerate and cause panic for others by making them unnecessary anxious and discontent. I have seen many folks at Amazon especially at leadership level enjoy the churn from the side silently.

@Date me could you tell which has the higher pay band between PM-T and TPM? Thanks!

Amazon DjsbEi3z Jun 7, 2018

My TCT is $225k

TPM is higher than PMT, no way you will get 300k

How about L7 TPM principal

Amazon Tcgtfo Jun 8, 2018

L6 PMT - 340k TC. It’s totally possible due to stock appreciation. As a new hire, you might have to negotiate or have a competing offer on hand to land around 340k.

Amazon Date me Jun 16, 2018

L6 PMT cannot be 340 TC. Incorrect compensation reported for sure. Can say that since I am from comp team

Amazon J3ff Jun 16, 2018

350+ is easily possible. I have reports who get more than that. Stock grew 5x in the last 3 yrs.

Amazon Kaiju17 Jun 8, 2018

L6 TPM TC 290k. Would expect PM-T to be lower.

Amazon 4amazonian Jun 8, 2018

It’s not - the ranges are nearly identical

Amazon Kaiju17 Jun 16, 2018

Good to know, thanks. I'd been told previously that in order of pay scale (desc) by role it went sdm, TPM, pm-t, pm. Not sure of the size of difference, but not surprised to learn pm-t and TPM are close

Is 235 TC a good offer for L6 PMT in Seattle? 16+ years of experience, 11 in dev, 5 in PM. Is there room for negotiation?

Amazon J3ff Jun 16, 2018

There is plenty of room for negotiation. Recruiters will try to lowball you. That’s their job. It’s yours to negotiate hard. Nothing helps more than a counter offer.

Optum Cuyu80 Jun 16, 2018

Thanks @J3ff. Is 300 TCO a realistic expectation?
