Groupon level and offer

I work at Amazon, SDE2 since over a year. Tc - 210 Yoe - 4.5 Started interview process at Groupon, want to know if it is worth it outlook wise and money wise. Is levels.fyi accurate in terms of salary for Groupon?

Amzn probably has a better recognized name

Won’t you be leaving a lot of comp on the table for leaving amazon after 1 year due to vesting?

That's what I'm trying to figure out, if I'm going to make more at Groupon than at Amazon. If so at what level

Yeah it’s pretty accurate on salary. They pay pretty competitively. The bonus paid out at 47% last year due to not making revenue targets though and stock is trending downward as well.

Amazon mgxU03 OP Feb 17, 2020

Based on the level comparison with Amazon, I would need to target SDE4 and even with that the tc is 189k. That doesn't seem competitive at all.

Well the base and bonus is very competitive. I’m not sure what new hires are getting in terms of equity probably more than what you’re seeing there. People who have been there a while are suffering on equity because of the decreasing value.

Groupon stock sank 50%, worth thinking about it?

Stay away from Groupon until things stabilizes

You do not want to go to Groupon from Amazon! That would be a huge mistake. Why would you want to do that? Anyone with any talent, who isn't stuck for visa issues, or isn't just coasting along in their career is looking to get out. Not sure Groupon will exist in a year or two.
