PhD sorry

$160-170k base, $100k bonus first year, 90k second year, 50 stock + PiP. Yes, Amazon puts people for no reason on Dev List (next PiP). Making your stock compensation zero. Good luck 🍀!

Thanks vkifkl, What is PiP exactly ?

Amazon Vkifkl: May 14, 2018

Performance improvement plan (pip). Amazon or AWS has no regards for people and their skills. Either your manager likes you based on your writing ability or obedience or the badge color, or does not like you resulting in the immediate Dev List (later PiP). It’s that simple. Sometimes they don’t tell you about your Dev List, and you might find out during your team transfer. The NYT article about Amzn is true, don’t do it unless you have no other offers or you’re desperate. Ps: For disclosure purposes I was rated tt (top performer) this year.

I see, hope the offer will be clean no PIP. Will share the details once I get the offer.
