Bloomberg, Princeton, NJ -- Base 155; Bonus 23 (every year); TC - 178 Amazon, Arlington, VA -- Base 129; Bonus 40 (second year 33); TC - 170 Bloomberg will have bonus every year, Amazon will provide RSUs What is the best option to take, depending on the Work-life balance, Tech stack, Pay, location, and learning opportunities. Thanks. #tech #amazon #bloomberg #newgrad #virginiamason
I think Amazon's brand would be better on your resume. It will also offer you more opportunities for learning. Work life balance would matter more as you age. For now, I would take Amazon, work there to reach L5 and then look out for better companies in terms of work life balance.
Include RSUs per year and add it to tc
If you care Princeton is very boring to live in and arlington will definitely be more fun
Is this for SWE?
Yes swe new grad
I had the exact same choice last year. Chose Amazon and very much regretted every day. Go to Bloomberg! Amazon is not a good place for ng in terms of culture. This is just my opinion: You will learn a lot as a new grad, regardless of which company you joined. At amazon, you will feel that you are trained to be a robot that executes tasks after tasks. With bad wlb, you likely won’t have much personal time to rest and learn something you feel excited about. At Bloomberg, you get to choose what kind of life and tech you want.
I'd say ask for NY location and choose Bloomberg
Bloomberg is better. You’ll have more opportunities in Manhattan and more importantly salary will increase exponentially
Bloomberg pays more and doesn't go down the second year
Don't we have RSUs from Amazon to balance it up?
Take your cash and buy Amazon stock if you like em sooooo bad😂 come on mate u r too smart to not think of that ahha
