Feeling stuck — Amazon finally got back to me and moving to loop interviews. However, already sitting on two offers and wondering if I should take the gamble and lose the birds in hand for this one in the bush.

Sometimes if you tell your recruiters you have offer deadlines, they will work to get the loop scheduled asap.

That’s a good point. Not sure if it would be enough at the end since the decision would likely be a week out. Worth a try.

Actually was in this situation and recruiter asked if I wanted to continue the process because it could take weeks… it did take 2-3 weeks. I accepted an offer and continued to interview with amazon.
Just got the offer from Amazon and about renege the offer I accepted

Just be careful about this cause you don’t want to burn bridges with anyone

I agree with RC1. Be gently about it.

Nothing is quick about their process. 2 months to get to a loop and I had a referral and know they needed to hire.

It’s taken forever as well for me. Had they been quick, I would not be in this quandary.

Have an offer from AWS for an L7 Principal PMT role: $215k base + $275k sign on bonus for Year 1 and $215k for year 2 + 5100 RSUs (@ $130 / share). This is the initial offer; where is there room for negotiation? Base or Sign on Bonus or RSUs? I realize it's a good offer, but I'm looking for: $225k base + existing sign on + 5500 RSUs. Does that sound like a decent counter?

Finished my loop for a marketing role 2 weeks ago, and got an email the next day that they wanted to give me an offer. Had my initial call with recruiter to put the offer together. It was lower than I expected, and we ended that call positively as I needed some time to consider, and we agreed to follow up in a few days. It’s now been a week and both recruiters have been unresponsive. Did I just lose this offer bc I tried to negotiate a more equitable comp pack, or is it a slow process?

Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?
