Amazon Got an offer which is nearly 22K less base pay from my current. It is on higher end on the L4. What are the chances it could be at least matched to my current base? What are my options?

What is position title? YOE? Locality? The offer they gave you?

Yes, L4 is entry level which is what is being offered. I am very reluctant to this Jr position

Not worth if TC is less than current pay . Notify them what should have been your appropriate pay and decline the offer.

Amazon is low on base but they cover it with sign on and shares.

Is your TC better than current one?

I believe Amazon sign on and shares are backloaded so they can pip you out before the majority vests. Check what you are signing carefully. Amazon is known for being the worst of the FANGs for a good reason

Moving to SF this summer (best bet is July) for a full-time contract and I’m looking for a place downtown to move in, preferrably the 94108 zone (terribly sorry for talking in ZIP codes instead of neighborhood names as I’m relocating here all the way from Europe and the whole thing seems fairly new to me). Any advice on how to start my search, any sites/groups/forums I should keep an eye on, any particular watch-out, or any leads you’d love to drop? Appreciate every bit of help 🙏

Im getting into swimming and I’m like OCD about my watch tracking my workout as accurate as possible (even if it’s not the most accurate 🤷🏻‍♀️). I used the open swim for the first time yesterday and one down is 25 yds but one full lap is 50 yds and regardless I don’t think it tracked my swim accurately. Is there a trick? Lol I input 25 yds as a lap but maybe I needed to put 50? Silly little thing but it’ll drive me crazy haha

‼️DATING SOMEONE IN COMPETING FIRM‼️Anyone have any experience dating someone that works at a competitor ? I’m a new hire and I’ve been reading the policies and it seems really strict. For ex:

(1) can a person at MasterCard date someone working for a competitor (AmEx) or merchant partner (any company that accepts MasterCard ex: Google) ?

And (2) If they CAN date, does this need to be reported to their leader and HR, etc ? (Most people don’t want their company knowing about their personal life)

I'm currently a technical account manager (TAM) at a large SaaS company. It's the first ever FT job offer I got and that's a big reason I accepted it: as a recent college grad, I wanted to finally get my foot in the door & get professional experience. The hiring manager also touted "consulting and strategic thought partner experience".

I really don't like the job so far (about 9 months in). What skills do you gain as a TAM, & what's the career trajectory? Is it mostly just client management?

I’m a first time middle manager. So my focus is (highest to lowest priority) 1) delegation & coaching; 2) internal processes & ops (team enablement); 3) code review/feedback; and 4) ad hoc partnerships/support for my team and other teams.

As an IC, I had a lot of peers, stakeholders and projects where I worked in depth, but now, my scope is broader and I worry that it’s harder to get quality 360 feedback and it’ll hurt my reviews. Any suggestions ppl have?
