Base: 146K Stock: 145K (4 years) Bonus: 45K (2 years) Recruiter said the yearly stock bonus is around 11K which will be split in 5 years (I feel that is too less) Current TC: 190K (SDE2 at AWS) Microsoft offer is slightly above my current TC. is it good enough to make the move ? How is the work culture/WLB in Azure ? #microsoft #compensation
was this your initial offer or you negotiated? Base looks really good.
Solid offer
Don't forget to factor in MS benefits. You get $10k additional right off the bat with 401k matching
Can you please explain how that works ?
Standard 401k match. Tough to explain in a comment if you don't know what 401k is but definitely Google it. You'll be making an uninformed decision if you don't understand some of these amazing benefits
No way to join with this offer. It can be up to 160/200-250/50 I think. Just tell them the TC is almost same as yours and you won’t give a shit to that offer
Looks good offer to me but can make higher stocks i think. Overall better than Amazon, even if the tc numbers match. Wlb and culture is good at Azure as long as i have seen but can't generalize it.
Tell them to bump you up to L63 and say you are ready to give additional interviews for the level jump. Say you are close to promo in Amazon.
base 146k stock 36k split over 4 bonus 11k split over 4 annual refresher: stock 3k bonus 15k lower-avg total: 210k factor in 401k : min of 220k per year for 4 years comp to amazon wlb, this is pretty good your base and thus bonus will increase every year, so your tc will increase. i say its a decent-good deal
