Otherwise all things considered it’s likely a wash bc you’ll have a higher chance of good WLB at Microsoft and the name value the same. But AMZN stock is more valuable than MSFT even at today’s prices. But Amazon vesting schedule sucks bc it’s butt loaded.
At the end of the day it’s just another job 🤷♂️
If you want to be thrown in the lake and hope you swim, take Amazon.
If you want to take formal swimming lessons, take Microsoft.
