I'd consider it if it also came with 35% less hours. If I had more time I could spend less on conveniences and vices, making the salary cut worth it.

After my final interview, last week of

Why would that be? What is the probability

Spoke to them 2 weeks ago and they
said approval doesn't depend on

Should I give up at this point? They also mentioned hiring will be done after July 15 due to corporate mandate.

Need some advice. Started a few months ago a new job through internal transfer as a lead role in a bank for $350TC. Amazon Web Services keeps messaging me daily for a Principal role and I’m not really in the job market but I think I’ll go through the interview process. I was thinking of demanding the following but I’m not sure how realistic for a remote principle role this is

Base: $240k
Cash Bonus: $110k
Signing Bonus: $150k
RSU: 9,100 shares ($1m PV) in (50/20/15/15)
Does this seem possible?
