Does anyone have experience negotiating an Amazon Web Services L7 non-tech offer? The initial offer is $175k base, 98 RSUs, $124k year 1 sign on bonus, 99k year 2 sign on bonus. I heard that base is harder to negotiate, so are RSUs and sign on bonuses the better levers to negotiate? Considering requesting a relocation package as well.

Seems low for L7 in my opinion

like

The fact that it’s a remote role plays a heavy factor into comp

I recently negotiated 20k base increase due to the recent announcements of increased base caps. You should ask for base too.

This does seem low for L7.. not sure about HR

like

Yes just brought up the recent news and told them a base would be more comfortable with. Also gave some suggestions for RSU and SO increases if they weren’t able to get fully there on base.

Agree the Yr 3/4 cliffs are tough and potentially reasons why people leave - I have heard rumblings that the base cap increases will change how they approach comp in future given need for retention

I haven’t negotiated for L7 but relocation packages are standard either lump sum or full service move—you shouldn’t need to request that. I’ve seen movement on RSUs and sign on bonus but not base usually, but I accepted pre- the new comp guidance so that may be different.

This is a full time remote role, so I was told I’d need to request it. Thanks for the suggestions on negotiation!

Hi all, I got laid off from my current company (product based) a month ago. Since then I've been looking for new opportunities. I got an offer from a good product based company with a good package and also my current company offering me rehire with promotion and a good package. I have a good rapport with my current manager, and he played a major role in offering this rehire opportunity. I'm confused about making the right decision here. Kindly share your views. Both offers are pretty much same.

Do people tend to age out of wanting to FIRE?

In your 20s-30s, you don’t know much, you’re told what to do, you have few financial resources so you are tied to your job. Under these circumstances it makes perfect sense why you would want to FIRE asap.

But eventually you advance up the ladder, you are now the boss and your people do all the grunt work. You also have built up expertise which makes the job easier. And you are making the best money of your life. FIRE is no longer so pressing.
