Hi Folks!

New to blind. My first post here! Please guide in case something is inconsistent with usual post requirements.

Recently got an offer from Amazon India for a non-tech role.

Tc details:

Yoe : 8 years
Level: L5
Base : 32 lakh INR
Joining bonus : 7 lakh (first year) + 5 lakh (second year)
RSUs: 12 ( 4 year standard amazon vesting)
Job family: Product

Wanted to know from the group if
1) this is a good offer for the role / job family
2) the take home salary based on this salary at Amazon. ( i am not familiar yet with the salary structure at Amazon in terms of HRA, conveyance, LTA etc.)

Look forward your views

    Wtf !! This is a low-ball offer for L5 for your yoe. On the base part and the joining bonus part specially they use to pay above 10 lakh at Least per year

  • Man I had almost 20% more comp than that as a Level 5 SDE four years back. WTF is wrong with Amazon.

    Base is ok, need competing offer to increase base. Sign on bonus can be 8+7. Stocks can be somewhere between 16-18

    By the way, would anyone be able to help me with the compensation structure at Amazon ( components within base). Just wanted to estimate what could be the take home based on the above structure

    Look forward to your thoughts!

      There's no conveyance allowance for tax benefit. HRA is there and for your base should be good enough unless you are renting 1 lakh flat. You can ask HR for explicit breakup. Rest use some tax calculator online.

    Thank you for sharing.

    Do not have a competing offer yet. But expecting to have one in 2-3 weeks. Not sure if waiting that long for acceptance is an option with Amazon.
