400K

350k for Seattle. The other guy is probably right about 400k for California

Amazon @——$ Jul 27, 2020

Without offers would be a bit less than 400k.

What about internally promoted folks?

Amazon MC DESU Jul 27, 2020

They go to the bottom of the next pay-band, which would be 250k for Sr. SDE in Seattle

Does it make more sense to move into a L6 role laterally to maximize TC? As compared to getting promoted to L6? Sorry if it sounds stupid, I have about 2-3 yoe and I don't know plenty of things.

7 years is a low level experience for L6

Amazon yoevstc Jul 28, 2020

Uhmm don't think so! I have seen many folks with 5 yrs but l6! 7 is just right imo

It is a low level of experience (close to bare minimum). Maybe all those 5 years at Amazon, but still sounds like a stretch
