Yup. They’re a client for us too. I know that work is very hard. What’s the money like?

Do your research on threads here. Amazon limits cash comp and back-end loads equity vesting, but they top up cash with decent signing bonuses for the first year or two They have a massive legal dept--they will tell you what the comp is and it likely will not be terribly negotiable unless you can show more skills or that you were banded incorrectly

Thanks!!

I’ve been told be friends at Amazon that there’s zero room for negotiation unless you have hard-to-find skills. Your Amazon recruiter should tell you what your comp will be the first time you chat.

Hello! I am currently expecting an offer. What was the compensation offered for you in London?

£82k base plus a “signing bonus” plus stock. All in comp came to about £110k.

However, the signing bonus is paid out over two year while stock comp ramps up meaning at the end of year two you have just base plus stock. And the base don’t change much at all for four years. So any “raise” us to come from stock price appreciation.
