Anyone moved from Seattle to Luxembourg for Amazon? Recommendations/ tips/ advice? Is it possible to come back to Seattle after a couple of years? I’m in my 2nd year with amazon, would i lose the joining bonus if I move to Luxembourg? Role: Program manager. TC: €140k TIA!!!
This is so 2000 and late.
What bonus?
The joining bonus for the 1st two years.
What is the base pay?
In the same situation, waiting on what the package will look like. If I'm coming from the US (SF) would I expect my salary to be cut?
At least half cut, could you get back to us afterward to know the TTC for your position ?
I am moving from SEA to LUX (product manager), and my base was cut ~9%, if that helps!
What was your base pay and level if I may ask?
L5, base pay ~$95K (I’m heavily stock comped)
I feel like I should have clarified, my base of $95K dropped 9% to around $85K (womp), so that sounds similar to y’alls pay! It’s good though that future stock vests aren’t impacted! I’d definitely recommend moving out here to try it out!
Wondering how the SEA to LUX move worked out for you in the longer term. Would you still do it after leaving in lux for 1.5 years now? Also, would be curious to know what stock grants are like in lux.
Are you still in Lux? I want to move but to want to come back at some time
Did anyone else end up transferring to LUX from Seattle? How difficult is it?
Have transferred with family and it was not difficult. No expat package - corporate transfer. Your pay will be put on the same place in the pay range. So - if you are high in range in USA tomorrow then will high in range in Luxembourg. Overall good package and enjoying new life in Europe.
Hey I know it’s almost a year since you posted this but do you mind sharing your experience? What was your TC and was it enough to live comfortably? 1 income or 2? Currently evaluating if I can live comfortably in Lux. Non tech L7, US Base 130K. How much would base be cut by?

What do you think is wrong with a kid who got rejected by 9 colleges?
Amazon engineer in Lux here. You will keep your bonus and share, but your salary will be cut by half. What is your experience, family situation, motivation etc?
Sounds like a good deal. Shares and bonus account for over half of pay
