Msft vs Amazon offer pick

Sep 8, 2020 75 Comments

Hello all,

Recently got offers from several companies in Seattle and two stands out. I was wondering if you all can help me consider the offers.

For Amazon L5:
154k Base,
132k signon(over 2years),
200k stock(over 4 years, 5% 15% 40% 40%)
Forgot which team
∼240k TC per year

For MSFT IC62:
150k Base,
80k signon(over 1year),
200k stock(over 4years, 25% each year)
New team with interesting technology
∼220k TC per year

My question is which offer would you pick and why? I'm also thinking about work life balance and future growth opportunities. From money perspective I'd go with amazon but I heard L5 life is super hectic at amazon. And msft has better Work life balance.
