Have a friend who got an offer from Amazon as Program Manager. Living in the DMV area. They offered her $119K TC. Does this sound about right to anyone? Any insight?

What level? I interviewed for a PgM role (L6) and they quoted me 175-200k TC.

I decided to pursue a Technical PgM role instead (L5) and gave them a TC expectation of 230-300k.

Need more details about dept/area and YOE. But sounds possibly low to me.

More deets. It’s a non technical PM role on the finance transformation team. She has 5 years of accounting experience in closing Big 4. We think it’s an L5.

I agree!

What should I do? I have an offer with 185 base,8% 401k and 10k sign on. MS reached out for tech role but I need to have full scope. I have ci poly now and I get nervous when I go on it. MS rep did say if I fail they will try to place me elsewhere but that may just be hr talk.

Should I try to sign the 185 offer and try to see if I even get offer with MS and let the poly play out or should I just not worry about it and sign the current offer? I am pretty sure the compensation from MS is great.

The company I work for is based out of a different state. They’re HR team makes more because of cost of living. Well, that has changed dramatically and over the last 3 years my state has soared passed theirs. Our team has not received inflation adjustment and we still make less than the team in our base office because of “cost of living”. My team and I have worked hard to demonstrate this but we are not being heard. The obvious would be to look elsewhere but other than this issue, I’m happy here

But I feel like a lot of companies have done this without having their employees ask?
