Amazon Offer Review

Received my initial offer for a program manager role in AWS sales. My experience and details are as follows: YOE: 1.5 PM + 3 BSA Location: Seattle Base: $115k Bonus: $13k/$11k RSU: 20 shares Not sure what the level of this role is, but I feel like there’s some wiggle room here on the table. Thoughts?

L5 role. Looks like program management and not product management.

Maybe even 4, geez. Let us know if it’s product or program.

Sorry, yes should have clarified. This is a program manager, not product.

Why u think lowball? What's thr job doing.

T-Mobile gomagenta5 OP Oct 31, 2018

Never said it was a low ball, more just that I know I can get a little more out of it given that it’s a first offer and just wanted some insight from other Amazonians. This job is working with AWS sales teams around process improvements for sales acceleration.

I used to manage at Amazon. Total comp at L5 is often around that base number. Looks like they’re skewing more towards higher base and lowers comp now
