Hi, I got an offer from Amazon for SDE2. Base: 160k Stocks: 68 1st year sign on: 81k 2nd year sign on: 60k Location: bay area Yoe: 5 Is this low/medium/high? Should i negotiate for more? Appreciate your suggestions! #offer #amazon #sde2 #amazonsalary
Lowball..
This offer sounds good for Seattle, but not Bay Area. Bay Area sde2 can reach TC 270k+
Amazon 240k in Bay Area for 5 YOE. Not bad but you can definitely do better. Any competing offers?
No competing offers
Max out the base to 185K
SDE 2 with 5 yoe can go as high as 320k in Bay Area. You are being low balled at 240k
sign on seems to be very good. how are refreshers in amz?
Refreshers are not great unless you are cream of the crop. Amazon HR sometimes gives you pathetic raise by stating the fact that due to Stock price inflation, your TC is already Raised up. Many more tactics like these
Ignore all the lowball comments. 240K in Bay Area for SDE2 is a fair offer. It's slightly lower than what Uber would pay, but not by much.
good offer
Hi there, curious if you had any luck negotiating or if anyone has tips on how to negotiate without a competing offer.
Lowball. Especially for Bay area.
How much less do you think this is? What could be the average?
At least 15k on base And 20k on each joining bonus
