Not worth considering. Amazon tried to lowball me with SDE1 too but I got better offers on the table so not moving forward. Plenty of companies in Austin or remote. Just keep interviewing.
Can you tell me what better offers you got? Were they for the same location?
I'd rather not discuss specifics cause I haven't accepted any yet. I'd like to keep a little anonymity right now, but they were all remote positions. Amazon is actually the only non remote company I interviewed with cuz they have an office by me (not in a tech city).
Which team?
Nope isn't F
If you got down level don't consider Amazon oh, it's very hard to re-up level yourself
Why from FB?
Op said he wants to live in Austin
Why Austin? I am also considering relo, can’t decide Seattle vs Austin
I've been looking at austin recently because texas is cheaper than Seattle and both have no income tax. Austin still has plenty of decent tech companies out there and the weather is generally nice than seattle
Austin is much better! I lived in Seattle for 5 years and recently moved to Austin to work remote. The weather is better, the people are friendly, housing is affordable, and people don’t drive 10 under the speed limit. The job opportunities are more limited, but Amazon and Google have decent-sized offices here, and Amazon pays Seattle TC in Austin.
I dont think the offer is bad in any way. Austin's cost of living is way cheaper. Check for yourself. I askper this you are getting a 50% hike, ofcourse take it with a lot of grains of salt. But you will save a lot more comparatively https://www.nerdwallet.com/cost-of-living-calculator/compare/san-francisco-ca-vs-austin-tx
Don’t California America’s Texas :) You’ll go pretty far on that number, but agree with the down leveling comments. We only go up
But austin is texas' California
Completely worth it! Austin rocks!
