Current TC: 400k
Amazon - SDE3, but using Microsoft to get loop set for principal. My interview went too well. Amazon interview was most difficult and for some reason there was lot of OOP/design pattern qs. Of course typical system design and real life coding.
Microsoft - 66 not in Azure and that's a worry. I want to do cloud and this is desktop. Also no java etc. I know I can change in a year but that means career hit etc. Benefits lot better.
Stripe - l4 I know their stock thing. Work seems interesting and good. I am not vest and rest. I like to work a lot. Also payment is a new domain to learn. Benefits are bad. I mean matching 401k health etc.
So keeping money aside, I prefer personal happiness over money. Which one is good? I am confused. I liked all people I talked to and team in all three. Hiring Managers were all good and candid.
And before you ask. Lowballed hard at Google. FB reject. Ex FB, MS and Amazon.
Also on hold from PayPal. I believe I am their second choice. But not interested in paypal now. PayPal was willing to pay around 550k in initial discussion and full remote. But got a not so good culture vibe. Recruiter says he is also looking for a different org.
If I get a PE position at Amazon it is no Brainer. I hope PE is treated well. MS from 66 to partner, how steep it is? As I mentioned no rest and vest for me. Stripe no clue. They seem to run pretty flat but good interview experience.
Also talking to Netflix recruiter but not sure if I can finish that. So need to let that go. Apple was weird. Inspite of two referrals not even called for interview. Got rejected by square and robinhood even before recruiter stage. Robinhood was not a match but not sure about square. But application itself was denied.

I donโt have knowledge to help in your decision as I am junior.
Can I ask you help, can you review my resume?
Thanks OP! I would think if you didnโt like the culture at Amazon back then, I donโt think you would like it today if you are the one having clout on who stays and who goes. You may not be a manager, but this power might make you squirmy and feel bad for the person. Some people can compartmentalize whiles others canโt.
