I recently received an offer for an SDE role at Amazon. I have options in both Seattle and Austin. Teams in both locations are great. Would I be missing out on a lot career growth if I chose Austin? There is a decent cost of living difference between the two. TC will be the same.
If tc is same, Austin for sure. No brainer.
Austin all the way if TC remains the same. I’m trying to relocate to Austin myself. Cost of living is better and the weather won’t prompt suicide... lol.
You will save double the amount in next five years by just opting for Austin. Then, you can decide where to live. Also, you will get great hike in salary if you move to Seattle from Austin.
Thing is you can settle down easily as fk in Austin with even sub 100k tc. But you’re getting the full amazon hq tc this should be full no brainer. Seattle is an awesome city and I’d love to live there nothing against Seattle in particular
Go to Austin, you will save a ton of money and not have to experience the depressing Seattle weather and the Seattle freeze. It’s like impossible to make friends here.
During my amazon interview my Uber driver legit told me about the amazon freeze lemao
I’ve live in the Seattle area for 4.5 years. It’s been amazing careers wise, and terrible social and dating wise. I’m thinking about moving to Austin in 2020.
Tc?

Is TC in both locations the same?
I haven't received the compensation details yet but I was under the assumption that Austin TC is the same as Seattle.
There’s no way Austin TC would be same as Seattle TC
