These are my initial offers. Bloomberg(Senior software Engr) - Princeton Office - 250k - 205 base + 45 target bonus. Microsoft(L62) - Redmond - 240k. I am planning to ask for L63 and see how far it goes. Amazon(L5) NYC - This is where I made a mistake of giving the initial range which is 300-330k. Should have quoted more. Recruiter said he can meet me in the middle and come back with the numbers. How can I increase my Amazon Offer? Current T.C: 130k YOE: 5 with Masters #amazon #bloomberg #microsoft #negotiate
Amazon should be able to give 400k tbh for NYC at SDE2
The only leverage could be Google onsite and then Meta phone round I have. Not sure if they would budge and increase that much
No, just tell them you have Google and Meta onsite. If they want you to stop interviewing immediately, the offer needs to be really worth it.
Hi OP, could you tell me what the onsites were like for Bloomberg? Would appreciate any info on questions asked. Thanks!
You can say amazon that you have competitive offer for 330k and if they beat then you can sign offer. If not please be ready to walk away. Anytime you start negotiate be ready for either way
