Prepare to work you a** off
Btw, amazon assumes 15% yearly growth in the stock when they compute TC.
Is that conservative?
Also - once you are in, will there be any comp adjustments after 1 or 2 years? Or I will be stuck with this comp for 4 years.
You all need to stop looking at stock and bonus when evaluating an offer
Worst advice I’ve read on blind today
You are kidding right?
Stock vests over time and your bonus is not guaranteed. You have to evaluate all parameters because companies like to sucker people in with low salaries and the “carrot” of “making big money” via stock, and a bonus which can change in the fly
Yes your TC is also over time, 1 year. Why would stock granted to you not count.. that’s silly. And yes for bonus always assume target bonus, maybe unless you know you’re a low performer..
Max base at Amazon is 160k. Stock is a main part of comp here and is pretty much guaranteed.
304k is pretty low for L6 SDM coming from outside. Any SDM joining from outside should get around 330-350k. And don't be surprised if L6 sde reporting to you earning 370-420k ( because of stock price increase)
Is 350 max for l6 sdm coming from outside?
Nope, L6 SDM range goes up to 400k. Usually for someone close to next level.
Is this initial offer? I think you can ask for more
This is the final. They won't budge.
