I’m on track (I think) to get to Amazon L7 this year, and have offers from Microsoft and meta (among other companies that I’m not interested in joining ) . I’ve read in multiple
Blind posts that e6 at meta is a downgrade . The scope of work at 67@ msft seems really appealing to me , but I like the team I’m taking to at meta more . I’m also considering team switch at Amazon if I get promoted .
Can y’all help with this ? If an e6 is truly a downlevel compared to L7 at Amazon or l67 at Microsoft , would that still be worth taking ? Both Microsoft and meta offering approx 800k with some negotiation room. I’ve also heard from people that e6 at meta can be a pressure cooker .
Tc pre stock drop : approx 700k thanks to appreciation

Just tell us what it is. No one cares what is was pre drop, everyone had high TC then and everyone is in the shit now.
Isn’t Amazon really close to all time high? Like 3-4% away?
Tell me ,have your ever heard any fb E7 joining Amazon as L7.
As a human being, one wants best of all world. So even though E6 maps to L7 in terms of TC and engineering ladder but responsibility wise it's closer to E7.
If you can get E7 it is clear promotion for you.
and last, i would ask yourself how would you like your life to look in 3 to 5 years? Is there a bigger career or life goal you have? Then work backwards from there to ensure compatibility.
PS Congrats on the offers, keep killing it!
Only thing is too many offers will kill OP’s time and will make him more confused 🤓
Meta team seems better in that it’s an area I want to diversify into . Msft will
Be more of the same as what I’ve done at Amazon so I have the expertise to hit the ground running . I think the manager at ms seemed better but I should probably have more meetings with them to suss it out .
Msft is up leveling you. With 800k TC you will be earning more than virtually everyone around you. You will most probably end up unqualified for a position, especially if it's an established project and this may cause tensions with other team members.
