[India] Moving to MSFT v/s staying at Amazon?
Hi folks,
Stuck in a dilemma regarding a situation. I am employed at Amazon as an SDE2. I have got an offer from Microsoft for L62 with the following TC breakup:
Base: 40 L inr/year
Stocks: 100k USD/4
JB : 3+2.5 over 2 years
Perf Bonus: 0-20%. Taking 10% as the median it comes to 4L/year
Total: ~64L/year
My current Amazon salary is:
Base: 43
Stocks: 5
Total: ~55L/year
I like the work at my team and have good growth scope in my current team as well. I do feel fairly underpaid, though, in terms of the value I bring to my team.
My questions are:
1. While it seems to be a no-brainer to switch to Microsoft, should I speak with my manager and try for a reactive D&S?
2. What kind of room do I have to negotiate with Microsoft on this offer? I will not be getting relocation benefits as location for both the offers are same.
YoE: 3 years

Just for general information though, Rubrik does give 85L/year, all cash to folks. And I know people who earn this much with lesser total experience. I guess that is how the market is right now, maybe.
I don't even want or need that, that's putting too much pressure on myself. The direction I am approaching this from is that I feel (again, might be subjective to you) I am getting less that what I maybe could in respect to what I bring to the team.
Hope that sets some context.
Flagged by the community.
However, I put in 8-10 hours daily on a consistent basis and drive projects.
There are people who have joined laterally in my team with lesser YoE and contribute far less that what I do but still earn 1.3-1.35 times what I do.
Given that, I do feel that I can do better.
Again, does not imply that I am not grateful to be where I am but I also put in more than my fair share for it
As for compensation, you can ask for more stocks (~140k is doable), they won't move on base I think.
