I have an offer from Amazon as a principal engineer at Alexa and the total comp is significantly higher. My current TC is 450, Amazon is offering around 700. I think I'm underpaid (for the market) at YouTube and it sounds like they won't try to compete with Amazon for salary.
I'm torn and worried about my work life balance at Amazon. Any advice?
Any ex-googlers at Amazon? Is leaving Google a good idea?
