Cleared Amazon onsite, but lowballed.

Cleared L6 senior SDE onsite loop. But, recruiter gave me a lowball offer still in L5 band. Current TC: 260k New TC: offered 275k Should I take it? Not willing to negotiate the pay, I feel like it’s better to be downleveled, than this offer.#software #engineering

I had 340k for L5. Looks like job market sucks big time now.

This.

I didnt ask about the leveling beforehand. He shared the numbers, I got confused and asked about level. Then he said it’s L6.

Walk away and watch them come back with a much better offer.

Qualcomm sameboat OP Apr 30

If I walk away, will they reach back later like few months later? Or will I get blacklisted?

Getting blacklisted for not taking a low offer sounds wild

Qualcomm QCemp87 Apr 30

I got more for a L5 offer with 3 years of experience This is definitely not a good offer

Amazon ess12 Apr 30

Is this USA? If so you miscalculated the TC. 275k is way below L6 band (starts at 350k)

Qualcomm sameboat OP Apr 30

They gave me like 75k stocks a year,

Qualcomm sameboat OP Apr 30

I don’t understand why they want to offer me Qcom pay and get their work done.
