How is the total comp for a Software Manager at ammazon? Base + Bonus + Stock? Is the bonus paid in stock or cash?

Base + sign on cash year 1 or year 2 + stock Stock vests 5%/15/40/40 (the 40 is actually 20% per 6mo) Sign on cash is to even out the comp to make up for bad vesting cliff through year 2

What's the motivation to stay unless they throw you a crap ton of stocks?
