Recruiter told me on phone and through email that I am being offered SDE1 in Seattle. I have a non-CE bachelor of engineering. 3 YOE in non-SWE technical role at indeed. 2 YOE before that at a less prestigious company. Make a little under 100k before bonus at Indeed. What kind of TC to expect and any tips to negotiate? I don't have any competing offers at the moment. I was told that I didn't do well enough in systems design to reach SWE2 level. #amazon #compensation
Their first offer will be 150k TC. You can negotiate up to 180.

Seattle people, what cars do you have? 🙂
L4 SDE1 expect 140-180k tc in Seattle depending on interview performance. You can always negotiate, even if you have no competing offers. Even if they say no, then you still have an offer on the table.
