L6 Program Manager Amazon Negotiation

I received first offer for L5 Base 95K, Sign on 18+15, RSU 22 My current salary is 150K I highlighted and politely rejected lowball. Offer went into the discussion, went thru 1 more interview round and received offer for L6 130K, 15+12, RSU 40. 1. Do I have a chance to negotiate it now? A) I had negotiated a level UP already, is it considered a negotiation already done for me? B) New offer better than old, but still matches my current salary and I would expect 10-15% hike 2. What is best way to negotiate(Call or Email), what are the best components to negotiate? 3. Should I negotiate Relocation? They are going to do actual relocation, I would prefer cash. #Amazon

I'd go for another ten shares, 20k and 15k.

Thanks, I was against Calling as I dont want recruiter to rush with the negotiation. I wanted to give her time to come up with new numbers. With the kind of vesting schedule they have, Y3 and Y4 is very high, I need something more in Y1 and Y2 so yeah sign-bonus should help.

Yep, and as long as the stock keeps going up like it just did, won't be too shabby

And I'd call, give the recruiter an offer that you will accept if they are able to get it.

Are PM & TPM roles at Amazon the same both in pay & role?

Aetna NewOffr Feb 10, 2020

Nope

How do they differ? Who gets more in TC?

Op, what was the additional interview like which came up due to negotiation?

Express Scripts OJJQ52 May 29, 2021

It was a leader interview. I think its needed when bumping a level.
