I am moving from Amazon L5 to Target L7 with a hike. People around me are showing me Sympathy instead of congratulating me. Is it really bad move ? I got hike and promotion in Target.
What is L7 in target?
I ain't reading all that. I am happy for you Or sorry that happened
LOL! It's only three sentences.
TC? YOE?
It’s a good move. Getting more scope at a smaller company is better than trying to directly fight your way up the ladder The company prestige thing doesn’t matter for people with significant experience
The sooner one realizes this is better for them: “Only things that matter are TC, career growth, being reasonably happy with their job”. Designation, prestige, level etc. are just carrots used by companies to gaslight employees.
No, it’s a concept that comes from immigrants.
Thanks .. I was stuck at Amazon at same level for 3-4 years and see no hope to move in next 2 years … I feel it’s right move and my Amazon friends made me feel that I can’t survive here and therefore I am leaving ..
Those MFs aren't the your buddies, more TC, hopefully less workload and learn more stuff... All positives I think
Which org ? And I will tell you how deep in trouble you are 😉
I did something similar and by the way all the prestige of amazon was that they used to have higher hiring bar, in recent times the bar was very low actually pathetically low. So there is no prestige attached imo
Perhaps less development more research and planning? You may become more of a PowerPoint power user than before?
