Been at Amazon for a bit over 2 years and was able to get through the Dropbox interview and get an offer Amazon L5 TCT: 220 TC after stock appreciation for the next 2 years: 250 Dropbox IC2 150/225/40 Yoe: 10 My current job at Amazon is fairly low key, good WLB, easy on call. However kind of boring in terms of tech. I like my team but fully remote seems cool and Dropbox is supposed to really appreciate their employees. Promotion also seems more straight forward. I’ve gone back and forth with Dropbox and this is considered my final offer. Thoughts?
Is it 225k stocks every year? Or 225/4? Also isn’t IC2 downlevel for 10 YOE?
should be 225/4
I mean, Dropbox pays a lot usually. This seems less.
which team are you at Amz?
ic2 offer seems odd, unless you haven’t been L5 for very long?
I was hired at L5, but Amazon was my first FAANG/big tech company
How is Dropbox’s business now-a-days? I feel like they are slowly disappearing from the stage.
Continue interviewing. You should be able to get senior position with a much higher TC. I got IC3 from Dropbox even though I was L5 at Amazon. Rejected and joined a different company with even better pay.
Dropbox is trash these days
Just because you don’t use it
No I mean the company.
Did you end up accepting?
I didn’t. I respect my manager a lot and didn’t want to bail before peak. And before a big stock grant in Jan
Is this bay area or seattle? or somewhere else?

How big are the balls of Google to lay off thousands and then do 70 BILLION in stock buyback?
IC2 at 10 yoe ?
That was my thought. They were hesitant to give IC3 because I’m only L5 at Amazon. Allegedly
Lol I know people at IC3 with 6 YOE and less.
