Hello Fishes,
I need your help.
I have 2 offers.

1. A Semiconductor company, known for good WLB , 42LPA(30 fixed,rest bonus , stock) + 8L JB
2. Amazon with 70CTC (45 fixed, rest bonus and stock) . I have seen very bad review about WLB and PIP culture.

Should I go for Amazon and sacrifice WLB or join the other at lower CTC and good WLB ?
If you were in my shoes , what would you have done ?

Disclaimer: I am not showing off or anything, Genuinely worried about work pressure and burnout ,PIP.

My view:

I would have gone with Amazon considering huge overall benefits gap. With the mentality that I'll have to work my ass off for next 2-3 years and not start whining in next 3 months.

- It'll certainly be good on my CV.

- I'll be in a whole different league during my next switch.

This makes more sense especially if you're not married or don't have children to look after.

I am not married. Maybe I agree with your point of view . I know Amazon is a good brand name . Hopefully I will get good team within Amazon that has average WLB .

Yoe? Tech stack?

6.3 YOE , Backend C,C++

My friend joined Amazon and left within a month. Reason - wlb and did not like the way amazon works.

Hope this information is helpful

uplifting

Thanks for letting me know.
I have also seen people suggesting to avoid the payments team as it has very strict timelines as it is of huge importance.

I would have joined amazon , considerable pay difference and at 6-7 yoe it is okay to push limits.

I got offers of 32LPA as well.
Some of the high paying companies are Siemens, Cadence , Synopsis, KLA etc that can provide 5*YOE as fixed or above.

However FAANGM are completely in a different league. 70+ CTC for SDE 2 roles .
