Hello, my friend got an offer from Amazon for SDE2 position. Location - Seattle YOE - 5 years Base - $160k Sign on bonus - $91k for first year and $71400 for second year RSUs - 1368 stocks( 5% first year, 15% second year and 20% every six months after that) Total compensation - $262882 Is this a good offer for this position or should my friend negotiate?
How many YoE your friend has? Thats bottom of the band, it’s okay if your friend has less than 5 YoE on a non top tier company. Overall I would highly advise your friend to get extra 10K on the base salary, even if it means decreasing the RSUs.
I got the same offer in 2021
Damn why I am interviewing then :( I thought we could get ez 300+
