Got an Amazon L7 offer. Still waiting for the numbers. What should I expect? Please share your L7 offer/current comp. TC: 380K/17YoE
What is the breakdown ? Is it manager role or IC ?
For Principal SDE in Seattle, top of band is 590k. Sr. SDM top of band a bit higher, probably (removing figure since Seattle managers below are saying it is lower). Bay Area, bands are about 10-15% higher. So negotiate accordingly. Keep in mind, basically no refreshers or raises during your first 4 years, stock price increases are your raises, so up front negotiation is key.
Are these target comp nos?(vs comp inflated bcos of stock) feels high to me
Target - these numbers have been reported by others here on Blind. Range for PE in Seattle reported several times at 390k-590k (nobody is ever hired at low range numbers - those are just there to screw over recent internal promos). Bay Area numbers are from my personal knowledge though. Sr. SDM goes up to around 700k target here. Realized comp for tenured L7s can definitely get close to or reach 1M with stock price increases.
Role?
All the best mate. Pay at UK sucks!
Amazon always underpaying, and you find different job than what you expected :(
What you mean by different job?
380 sounds low but I'm crazy . I think you should take the price of the house you need .. divide by 3 . Then multiply by two for the area you're in. That's what I'd ask for ... So maybe 500k?
What is L6 high range of TC in Bay Area?
Hi OP. What offer did you end up getting?
Yes. Please tell us.
What are you actually getting every two weeks in your paycheck? Or what is your monthly salary?
Congratulations. It should be around 500+, if it's for engineering org. What's your current level ?
I agree. .. cost of a house you need . Divided by 3... Then multiply by two ... At least ...
Jenga can you tell me how you came up with this? Would like to do a calculation as I might be getting a job in Seattle.
