Does anyone have any insight into accounting roles at Amazon, particularly in the Arlington/DC area? An Amazon recruiter reached out about accounting roles, but the posts in this bowl are about Seattle. Trying to decide if the culture/wlb/pay is even worth looking into since it sounds like the interview process is intense. Base pay seemed pretty low in other posts, but they were a year old and for Seattle.

I’m in a similar situation. It all depends on your end career goals. The bank is is paying you more because these positions are difficult to fill and they want you to stay for a couple of years. If you take the IA offer and don’t like it, you will be back to interviewing for the same exact jobs now. If you stay in IA for a couple of years, it will be even more difficult to break into non IA roles since you became specialized. At the end of the day, I recommend focus on a role that matches your career goals and not focusing on a one time pay out for a higher salary/WLB
All good. Banks value their IA function and you will be well respected. I’ve heard sometimes the bank will allow transfers as well. IA at the bank can have good growth as well. Most likely you will max out as Chief Executive Auditor at 300k + bonus. Recruiters will tell you anything so you take a job. They earn a commission on you. I sent you a PM to see if we have the same job offer, bank, and recruiter.

Sounds like FR is the better option in your situation
