Hi everyone,
Posting on behalf of a friend.
Want to know is it worth joining Amazon for the brand name ? I want to work as an Android Engineer at companies like Spotify, Netflix, Uber Amsterdam, Meta, Snap etc... But for some reason my resume is not getting through there! Not able to land an interview.
I'm able to get calls from Google, MSFT, Booking.com, Zalando etc though.
Want to know will the Amazon brand name help with this situation ? Atleast landing an interview at any company in any part of the world.
Also, is the TC offered better if coming from Amazon vs any other non-faang ?
Blind tax (his):
YOE: 2.5
Current TC: 24L
Offered: L5, 42L + 22L + 18L + 22/4

There are also some companies that I vet the candidate a bit more because the company has a poor reputation
What do you suggest ? Savings will be same at both places so money is no matter.
Also the mentioned companies mostly hire people in us only. So one career path can be joining amazon -> internal transfer to Seattle after 2 yr -> switch
Also, meta does hire here in India for London offices.
