L7 is either a Principal Engineer or a manager. What position are you looking at?
Engineer
390-590 in Seattle.
Got to be more than 390. Every loser in town makes 390. L7 engineer at Amazon means something.
390 is where the band starts, but pretty much no PE is paid that little.
Can also confirm 390-590 in Seattle. In Bay area/nyc it's 450-700.
What is L6 range?
Up to three bananas.
Could you elaborate? I’m not sure what these terms mean
Refreshes/refreshers are just stock grants with a vesting cycle. I fucking hate those terms. Amazon’s stock grants assume 15% YoY growth. And they are backloaded meaning you get more in years 3 and 4 than in 1 and 2.
Levels.fyi ?
Thx! Didn't know they had comp there too. I guess sometimes it pays to click.
Levels.fyi is garbage. Look at how wrong it is for Google.
