I have two offers for a new grad role and I'm looking for a little guidance. I would be living in SF for both jobs(I don't want to live in the valley). That would give me about a 1 hr commute on the Caltrain if I took the Atlassian job but a much easier commute if I joined Amazon. I'm also looking for input on which job would be better for my career. Amazon seems like a more prestigious name to have on my resume which could help plus I could potentially grow more as an engineer at Amazon (from what I've heard) YOE - 0 Amazon - SF TC = (128k base, 50k/26k signing, 95k RSU 5/15/40/40) Atlassian - Mountain View TC = (117k base, 40k signing, 100k RSU 25/25/25/25) with yearly bonus targeted around 11k
Did you intern at Amazon previously?
I would go Atlassian 100%. My friend did an internship there and now full time and he loves it.
What school you're from ?
Definitely choose Atlassian. Heard it has great culture and honestly what’s the point of working if you’re gonna be stressed out with no perks/ wlb at Amazon
Definitely Amazon, it would give a huge boost to your resume that Atlassian never can. However, Atlassian is a much better company than Amazon for your happiness.
