Shopify offer vs. stay at Amazon

Currently L6 / Sr. PM at Amazon (TC: $265K, $200k worth of RSU still to vest for 2 more yrs). YOE:8 Trying to decide whether to stay at Amazon or jump to Shopify as Product Lead (one level up) but Shopify offer seems too low IMO (base $200k, $180k RSU over 3 yrs). This is after negotiating. Should I take the lower salary at Shopify to get a promotion in job title and role? What's better for long term? Also can you take an offer only to walk away later if something better comes along in a few weeks? Timings not working out with other roles I'm still interviewing for. #negotiateoffer #negotiate #negotiation #shopify

Depends on what is important to u. High title OR high pay? But if it is AND then I wouldn't take it and look elsewhere (unless life sucks currently). Ymmv.

Do you like the team and problem space? One good thing is you can move around Shopify easily. Stock should have decent appreciation too.

Canada or USA?

Canada

Wow, thought you’d say USA. I know of another Product Lead with $155k base in Canada.
