Hi guys - I accepted my offer from Amazon yesterday (via email). I received my Amazon Joiner Support email earlier today. I was wondering when was the best moment for me to resign and give my notice? Feels like they’re doing employer checks and visa checks before sending out the employment contract… Im currently pre-settled status in the UK, and wondering how to best approach this. Any tips are welcome. Thanks, x

Id probably wait until you receive a contract :)

Never leave your current job for your new job until you have received your unconditional offer letter/contract. Even at a conditional letter, do not hand in your resignation. Although not common, I had to withdraw some offers as part of the pre-employment screening I found people with undeclared criminal offenses which is lying on your application and therefore, we withdrew on the basis of character. Once you have your contract, then you hand in your notice.

Wait until you receive and sign your contract :)

I don’t know the level but was aiming £80k base, +15% bonus. If I don’t fall under their budget, would I automatically be removed from candidates?

Background: 7YOE, 2 Masters Degree
Any tips are appreciated!

Hello all,

I am currently in the process for interviewing for a role at 
Amazon for their office in Basildon in corporate (HR if it wasn't implied by my title). Spoke to the recruiter and on my application it will be £55k base but wondered what level is that and what leeway I have for bonus (sign on) and what is the RSU looking like. I am also needing some help if possible please on the interview process as I would really like to get this since it is my dream job.

Any help appreciated.

Hi I am making an internal move (Program Management) in the same org but different team, from London to another EU locale . The offer unfortunately did not offer relocation package. Am I able to negotiate salary (pounds to €) , or is it fixed and no room for negotiation? Thanks

Hi all! Received an offer today for London - the position is L5

Base: 55k

Cash Payments:

Y1: 17K

Y2: 16K

RSU: 500 shares (Y1: 25 Shares, Y2: 75 Shares, Y3: 200, Y4: 200)

Keen to get feedback. Feel that the base salary was too low but from my conversation with the recruiter there might be wiggle room on the cash payments potentially. What are your thoughts? Any tips appreciated!

Thanks

Hi team. I received my offer from Amazon and signed my contract a few weeks ago. I also resigned from my current company after agreeing on a starting date mid-January. Seeing the news of the hiring freeze worries me though - do we know if this applies to roles where offers have been extended? Could they retract an offer after I signed a contract? Not sure what are my rights. Let me know if you have any tips/knowledge to share!
