Anybody work at Amazon? Are their offers negotiable? My husband got an offer for a senior position in the VA office paying $120k plus $20k bonus plus 13 shares of stock that vest over 4 years. My husband has ~6 years of experience (2 yrs midsize PA plus various industry roles) so the senior title is low but have heard you have to take a step down in title to work at Fortune 25 companies. He likes the offer but not sure if he should negotiate for more because it’s expected?

13 shares? Is that 13k? 13 seems low no matter what the share price is

like

I knew a 1y in FR got 60 shares vested over the same time. 13 is low…

He should take it. His wife is a SM so the two combined are going to be $$$. (But really, VA is expensive!)

Best of luck to you both.

What field are we talking about? Tax/audit/advisory?

Trying not to say so the details of the offer don’t give away the candidate

If you like the offer, is it worth losing over an amount that likely is not meaningful to you?

I will have 4 year experience in oct and got an offer for 90k base, 20k bonus this year and 15k next and 14 stock options in VA. My hiring manager said I had option to negotiate but just ended up declining. I believe there’s always some wiggle room so he should try negotiating.

Currently interviewing for VA offices! Following.

Is this senior tax analyst? It is within the range. However, it can be negotiated higher. Is that bonus 2 year total? The title is normal. I bet he is coming in as l6. You need have been a manager for a few years or senior manager at public accounting firm to come in as l6.5 which is a manager.

Can you pm?

Salaries for Software Engineer roles are negotiable, not sure about accounting.

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?
