hi blind folks! posting this using a friends accounts LOL. so currently i have offers from both expedia and amazon and i would like to hear some insights on which one to accept for now. in terms of tc expedia 127k base, 40k stock, 20k sign on, seattle amazon 138k base, 108k stock, 32k + 27k sign on, bay area im leaning towards amazon a little now only because the location works out better with my bf and i prefer the sunny weather. but im also pretty scared of the whole pip thing at amazon. what do you guys think?? what would be a better choice for a new grad?? feel free to drop some advice here. thanks in advance! #tech #engineering #software #swe
If you need better WLB - Expedia. If you don’t care about WLB and want to worry about PIP - Amazon. Choice is yours! Mental health is more important than money!!

Do your 1 year slog at Amazon and then easily find better opportunities afterward. As much as people here meme about Amazon, the pay is solid and it’s still a FAANG on your resume so you’ll be much more competitive if you want to switch to a different company in the future
As a new grad you should take the Amazon offer. Don't fear the pip. You'll get better experience. Now is the best time for you to challenge yourself and take the risk. If you were 30-40 I'd recommend Expedia because it will be more comfortable.
