Amazon New Grad SDE offer evaluation vs Nordstrom Return Offer
Hi everyone, I just interviewed and received an offer from Amazon. I also have a return offer from Nordstrom from the internship. Give opinions on offer to take + any advice on negotiations. Amazon Offer: Base: 120k RSU: 88k over 4 years (5, 15, 40, 40) Sign On: 27.5k TC: 152k, location is Seattle, WA Nordstrom offer Base: 110k Annual bonus: 10k Sign On: 10k TC: 130k, location is Atlanta, Ga Other stats: TC: 88k (43 an hour for intern) U.S citizen Asian male First Big Tech offer (unless you consider Visa or Nordstrom big tech) Both offers are New Grad Things that matter to me: * Ability to move to other FAANG tier companies * WLB * TC * COL #offer #offers #newgrad
How tf did you get an internship at $43 an hour? Am I missing something like are most like that??
Is that only first year bonus or 2 years accumulated? Generally amazon gives ~50k bonus total
Enjoy your youth and don’t be a slave to Amazon. Look at blind for culture at amazon. Up to you what you truly value
From someone who worked at Nordstrom and then amazon. If you value WLB and a great team culture, it doesn’t get better than Nordstrom. If you are looking for brand value and money(in the initial offer), Amazon is for you. Nordstrom’s tech stack is at par with most of the FAANG companies, they are using the latest and greatest technologies in most teams.
Make this a poll. Also Amazon offer seems better and will look good on resume
