It would be a “hell no” for me if I leave the company. Leetcoding every day, and trying to land an offer now
Stockholm syndrome is a thing.
Maybe with two level up and 50% raise
Money talks
Come back leveled up and maxed out on money - then coast for four years in HV-no-additional-investment. Do an MBA, raise kids, flip houses, pursue a new hobby, and then go elsewhere.
how many teams was u in, op?
No....
Came back after 2 years out. +1 level and 50% raise.
Amazon has given me sufficient reasons not to consider returning back and lessons that I will remember for a long time. Also it would be a retrograde step considering most companies pay better than Amazon at the same level.
I’d leave and come back for the sign on bonus and level up. Hell I might actually do this later this year.
I left for personal/family reasons, I would absolutely go back. Probably would be at a different campus than Seattle tho
Ex-wife or ex-gf?
Can you elaborate? Because I’m thinking about going back, it’s hard not to think about it
