Don't forget about the state income tax in Cali.

And Uber stock is going opposite direction of that of Amazon.

Your current TC looks pretty high compared to offered one. Even if this offer was Seattle, I wouldn't jump for miniscule increase. Here your offer is in Bay Area with less TC. Also, Amazon stock is more stable

If you want tc bump, stay at Amazon. If you want to move to SF, then... I guess move to an Amazon office in the city?

Amazon stfUp OP Nov 2, 2019

I am guessing Amazon will only do 10% base increase on loc change.

Uber gh5ht8g Nov 2, 2019

Why are you looking to move? I think that is going to matter a lot more than this immediate TC loss.

Hats off to you for considering Uber at this time

Do you have more insight on Uber's layoffs? Was it based on performance? Was it simply closing down non-profit orgs? Not sure, why didn't they move those engineers to different orgs instead.

Was largely performance based.

Incorrect, have lost some good performers as well, it was mostly done for wall street, company goes down expect more layoffs.
