L7 at AWS roughly translates to L6 at Google. Check out https://levels.fyi
With 8 yoe, you're probably looking at L5 at AWS. SA pays about 15-20% less than an SDE at the same level (check levels.fyi).
Interesting that SA gets paid less than SWE, I'm not used to that. Sales typically make a lot more. Must be a big 3 thing..
Depends on your experience. AWS will interview you for L6 and they will down level you to L5 ... because they can. Don’t know for GCP. L7 will be a stretch unless you have senior role at your firm. Good luck buddy
Most likely L6 at aws. Hard to really tell in levels.fyi bc it's for SWE and not SA. hopefully, it's comparable
Yeah it’s hard to compare because SDE and SA have different bands so they are unfortunately not comparable. SA is lower. I’ll give you one data point. I just came in as L6 Sr SA with 7 YOE. Offer TC is 244k.
That's not bad. My concern is that it's 100% guaranteed pay. Does that affect your mindset and incentive to work harder at all? All my previous companies are 70/30 pay split
AWS pays very very well!

Do you really think Amazon is that bad
Depends on level. What level are you interested in?
