AWS Sales

Aug 26, 2018 14 Comments

Been at my current employer over 10 years and have it pretty easy but the CEO is intelligently incompetent and our product has been waning for some time with little pipeline of interest. I’ve been offered a good job at AWS but it’s global and I will have at least 8 international flights a year. Not that I need business class because I’m pompous but flying 12 hours from SFO to Europe sucks in coach. It’s also on MBO and no assurance of commission. I would be going for the better technology stack, the stock upside, the safer income (at least for two years with the signing bonus), and a more competitive company. I am concerned the boss I will have has too much on his plate, the culture is not warm from everything I hear, and they’ve already given me one indication of comp only to come in 40% lower at first but come up another 20% since. I’m currently only able to negotiate for more shares. Current AWS employees, please feel free to chime in on your thoughts.
