would you move to seattle and join AWS if the Amazon pay is similar or less than what you might make at GS(ofcourse includijg discretionary bonuses)? i think the pros with Amazon are you get to work with tech stack which is future for next few years and on a larger scale. cons are moving to seattle for a slightly equal/lower pay. pros with goldman might be the pay assuming the bonuses are good. cons are lack of tech stack. need some suggestions.
I'd pick Amazon. With GS you risk getting obsolete and finding yourself in a difficult to climb hole over time
GS is the past. Amazon is the future. You can decide. Not sure why this is a question đ
Are you in NYC? Although comp may be lower, COL would be lower in Seattle. Something to consider
Amazon hands down - try getting the same in NYC , plenty of teams here. Youâll get a higher offer and much higher growth potential than tech at an IB
Thanks! The teams I interviewed with are in Seattle so there is no position as of now in NYC. Will they adjust my comp if I take a mobility to a team based in NYC say an year working there?
Yeah, but just cost of living adjustment at that point. Not a re-evaluation of the location wise bands. Once youâre loop approved and have an offer - theyâll easily find you a team in NYC, if you ask for it.
I hate Amazon, but Amazon
not want to sound like a racist, but unless you are white male and also have a rich father, amazon over gs any day any week any month any year.
Please work with GS, they have a cutting edge technology called slang and SecDB. Slang is a copy of JavaScript where youâd find little documentation and numerous bugs. (You also will enjoy a blue screen editor without mouse support) SecDB is single NoSQL that supports single digital indexes! Welcome to 1999. I looked every corner of GS, thereâs not HFT code because the execution speed is at matter of seconds!
Hands down Amazon, dont even think of GS over Amazon. I would say GS over every other investment bank, but you cant compare them with tech company. FYI, I have worked for GS, Microsoft and now Amazon.
