Does Amazon give refreshers? Someone told me that they pay high but give no refreshers which makes it a very bad deal on the long run
Amazon offer letters are for 4 years. Year 1 - Base + Sign on bonus + 5% RSU Year 2 - Base + Sign on bonus + 15% RSU Year 3 - Base + 40% RSU Year 4 - Base + 40% RSU In year 3 you get a RSU refresher that vests in year 5. In year 4 year you get a RSU refresher that vests in year 6. And so on
1) How is this different from regular refreshers at other companies? 2) Like the comment above said, you get no annual bonus based on performance?
1. I’ll need to let people from other companies comment on the difference. 2. No annual bonus, but annual raise to the base salary. Usually these are not significant amounts. RSU refresher is highly driven on performance.
Can you share the target TC numbers for different levels?
Here’s the full refresher policy. Check out this post! "How “refreshers” work at Amazon (Compensation)" https://us.teamblind.com/s/pVJmPiL4
No annual bonus. No refreshers.
