Offer - Base - 135k Bonus (2 yrs) - 68k RSU - 100 ( 4 yrs - 5/15/40/40) Total TC - 179 They are matching his current Salary with no increment. Recruiter said this is max they can offer... so need suggestions on how is this offer.

What is saleforce architecture like? Sounds. Like a high level title but tc seems like a eng 1/2

Thx for explaining. Btw, don't believe the 1-1.5 years bs. The recruiter says that to make u sign the offer. From a eng2 to senior in Amazon is a big gap.

1-1.5 yrs is total bs. They can't give him in written so doesn't matter. And total comp seems too low for amazon.

TC seems very very low.

Salesforce charges 500k for their program architects to a client like Amazon. So if your friend has double digit years of exp, this is way low...

500k per year?

Salesforce Wpdifne Dec 5, 2017

Yes, but it is a consultant type role. But I for sure could see Amazon having 1 or more of these with their Salesforce spend

Seems like a role with limited growth options. Is it titled a an SDE?

No this is titled as Internal App Dev

Don't take it...

Listen guys, this role is program architect managing Salesforce is solution and not a software r&d architect role that require 10+ years software development experience that warrants 300k+ offer.

Who is a program architect?

Amazon Ravens Dec 4, 2017

Thanks All for suggestions.... Today he has informed HR that he can’t accept this offer and waiting for HR to respond him

Good. You need to get a lot of certification to be a salesforce architect. That comp sucks. He can get a better deal at tons of our customers
