Ok now time for final showdown. Here are the numbers
Current TC: 32Base + 5 Bonus
Amazon SDE2 TC: 34Base + 11JB First year and 7 JB Second Year. + 15Rsu
Average: 45L per year.
Microsoft SDE2 L61 TC: 25Base + 5+5 JB for 2 years + 50K$ stock for 4 years + 10-20% Bonus
Average TC: 40L per year. Might be a cliff after 2 years.
YoE: 2y
Some other points to note.
1. Microsoft unwilling to negotiate. Seems they want anyone for the role and experience till now has been unprofessional. TC is significantly a joke, where definitely they can give more on stocks at this level.
2. Amazon surprisingly extremely professional experience. Hiring manager is going above the way to want me and keeps checking in with me. The team is a very new team working in IoT related technologies so very low on-call load. Manager seems to like me a lot since day 1 as he had reached out to me himself and got me into the interview pipeline.
What do you do here. Looking for sound advice. I fear PiP in Amazon but I had an open discussion with the manager on this and he said you are the last one that should be worried about this. Manager seems way too cool for Amazon standards.
Also in the future have plans to move abroad, manager said Seattle move is possible if you want it post a year.
Would love some sound advice. Thanks Blind community. #engineering #software #sde2

WLB at Microsoft might be better than Amazon but I would suggest do not worry about pip.
No wonder the manager is going above and beyond to get you. He sure has his ass on the line.
I would suggest, take Microsoft, study for G or FB and then make a move there or start a YouTube channel/other source of income. While being at amazon you will be loaded with work and cannot prepare for other exams.
