Stay at Accenture or join Aws

Does having amazon Aws on your resume gives you an edge?

I work at Accenture with great work life balance. I have around 1.5 years of exp. I work around 8-10 hrs in a week and also take care of my 9 month old daughters without any help. My husband works at Microsoft so also has a good WLB.

I wanted to join Faang specially microsoft, prepped leetcode for 3-4 months. I have only 1 offer atm from Amazon. I failed Microsoft and google.

Current Tc: 82k
New Tc: 175k.

With Accenture on my resume I have a hard time recruiter reaching me and also no growth and no learning opportunity but I get alot of time to spend with my daughter.

My husband suggested me to join amazon because it will make my resume shine, work there for few months and move somewhere else but Is the new Tc and brand name really worth the WLB I loose? Also nanny and day care is out of the question Atm due to covid. What if the new opportunity takes a really long time to come?

Is Amazon on my resume worth taking a risk for?
