Hey folks, I'm currently at Amazon (SDE1) in India TC: 28 LPA I think mostly my promo will be in next 3 months and according to team I'll get TC of 48LPA(40base+8stocks) Currently I got an offer from Microsoft L61 India TC: 49 LPA(30base + 10L stock/year + 9L others) Do I consider taking MS L61 offer? Since my promo is 3 months late - should I tell MS recruiter upfront about my promo to negotiate further? Do they ask for some documents - about competing offers or Promo letter? Or do they even consider not promoted negotiations? YOE: 2.5 Yrs (At Amazon 1.5 Yr) #microsoft #amazon #indiasalary #swe #software #engineering
Dont switch if promo is around the corner. Stay put and switch after a year. Getting from L61 to L62 takes atleast 1.5 years and if you switch after getting SDE 2 you might get L62 after a year.
But if he gets L62 too early he may not perform at that level so get PIPed. If he gets to L62 late like after 2 years then he will gain experience to deliver that level, right?
It depends on the team that you are working for. I think being an SDE 2 in amazon has more chances of PIP than L62 at Msft.
L62 is easy in Microsoft than sde 2 at Amazon
So which one to choose?
I'd say go for Microsoft L61
Thanks let's see
Yoe?

You can get a much better TC after the promo. Expect 60-80L, Microsoft is not the only option and it's actually one of the lower paying companies. Not worth switching now for almost the same that you'll get in 3 months. Also, MS (or any other company for that matter) will not consider your promo right now and give you a hike on top of that.
Got it thanks!
Did they ask system design in your MS interview? How did you prepare for LLD/HLD? Thanks in advance!!

Bad move. Wait for promo and switch
