Microsoft to Amazon (Imdb/Alexa)
Looking to jump ship from Bing and got an offer from Imdb advertising team/Alexa shopping and personalization. I am a Software engineer. Anyone have any thoughts on these 2 options? Is there a possibility to ask recruiter to connect with other teams if neither of these options are appealing enough?

Please dont! Amazon isnt worth of people of your caliber (read Microsoft)

You know the drill already. No one has heard of imdb team at Amazon but Alexa is everywhere. Might want to consider aws.
Current pay and offer details before anyone can give useful info. If you’re making 200% in new job I’d take it and figure out later. If you’re getting 5k more I’d say both are not worth it stay at MS.
Thanks, I don't have the final numbers yet. That would definitely play a part in the final decision.
