What level are you now?

Microsoft !nutella! OP Jan 16, 2018

61..most likely will be 62 this year..

Do u have an offer? I say move. Alexa is super hot right now. And you are not high enough level for power grabbing politics to impact you. Work will be hard but totally worth it in GOLD on your resume.

Stay away from Alexa the churn is massive and people lack direction

I wouldn't move to Alexa. Unless you want to learn how the sausage is made. It's not pretty.

Move if TC is more then 250k

Microsoft !nutella! OP Jan 17, 2018

I highly doubt they go more than 220k

L5 is a good level. They can go more than 250. Tell your expectation to recruiter and don’t accept the offer until they give what you want. They may say it is not possible but they do come back shortly after you reject as long as you are still in the market.
