DE Shaw has two divisions for tech roles: systems and front-office. I would strongly suggest against joining Shaw if you are getting a Systems offer as the work quality is not great and growth opportunities are limited. Front office role will offer better tech stack and will definitely pay much more than your current TC, but there are certain advantages at a pure-tech company like Amazon which Shaw (Hyd office) will always lack. If I were at your place, I would try to get an offer from Shaw and use it as a bargaining chip at other companies.
One benefit of joining DE Shaw is that you can get promoted to SMT (equivalent to SDE2) in 1.5 years if you perform exceptionally well. For most of the other companies, 2 years is the minimum exp. needed for SDE2.
