My total comp is 272 (base, bonus, stock). Non Dev, Non Managerial. Can companies like Amazon, Google give a comparable salary? I often get weird exclamation from recruiters when I say my comp. I'm based in Bay Area.
Wow had no idea design can get that high!
if they raise eyebrows you probably interviewing for the wrong level/role or you are overpaid by yahoo
did you come through acquisitions? its expected for them to get a cut after leaving the parent company
Yes
In such situation, do they even give an offer that's lower than my current comp or do they simply reject because it's higher than their scales? I have a feeling the interview went really well and I don't want this to be a blocker.
Great, that helps. Yes, I've specified that it's the total comp. I'm just hoping they make some offer than just being scared off.
Design and in the neighborhood of $350k overall. I had an offer from FB last summer that exceeded that. In hindsight I should have taken that offer instead of staying.
Yes, Amazon can match
I'm assuming this Amazon in the Bay Area? There was a post in another thread and it seemed like designers in Seattle were paid extremely low.
Possibly they were outside of AWS? I know designers that work for their in house design dept make this kind of comp.
Netflix can match.
Depends. Bay Area prices and cost of living is way different from a place like Seattle. Those tiny 3 bedroom houses in the Bay Area for $1 million can be 1/3rd of the price in other places. So you might not be able to pull that salary if you relocate out of the bay.
Not its not
I guess it would depend on your role, what do you do @ yahoo? Kind of hard without knowing what job family you're in
Design
Yes, likely within AWS.
