Thinking about applying to Amazon for a product marketing manager role. Current TC w MS is 117k - no sign on bonus. Current level is Lvl 60 w 3 yrs of Exp

Does anyone know what type of compensation and level that would translate in Amazon? Should I play it safe and stick with MS? The blind culture leads me to believe that I should jump ship... then maybe jump back to the ship a couple of years later...?

Looking for advice.

    I'd imagine you'll be around $200K TC. I am $235 but have 15 years experience

      I see. If offered, that range difference would be worth it in my opinion. I love MS but I can't help but feel indifferent knowing that I could potentially be making a substantial amount more somewhere else.

      Makes sense. The hike is what I'm looking for. Talking to other folks about getting the most financial bang during my time out west. The advice is to move companies as switching is prolly my best bet to maximize income.
