Interviewing with Amazon and I am being considered for L4 Program Manager. I have a master’s degree with 4.5 years of experience. Is this common? What is the expected split of compensation for L4 vs L5?

Where is your masters at. What level are you now. Seems low from my experience working tbere

Masters in Information Systems and 2.5 years experience after that. I’ve typically heard L4 is for folks fresh out of school?

L4 or early 5 is about right with your YOE. I wouldn’t pay too much emphasis on your MBA though. It’s what you can bring to the table.

Makes sense! I will have discuss with the recruiter to confirm on the expectation.

Masters in what....?

4.5 YOE equals L4/L5 just at face value

MBAs come in at L6

10 yrs and they wouldn't do l6 for me. L5 at best I'd what I've heard from others too. L5 sounds right for you

Oh no! Did they provide any reason for not considering L6?

Should be L5.

I have 4.5 YOE and a master’s as well and was considered for both L5 and L6

Yeah you can always negotiate. Idk what the upper bound is exactly for L6. There’s prob not a lot of wiggle room for base salary though so you can ask for more signing bonus or RSU

Do you mind sharing comp for L4?

I recently accepted a job that I quite overqualified for because I’m in need of a job. I got hired as a Marketing Manager and work directly with the Marketing Director. Come to find out my director is still in school and has absolutely no marketing experience. She’s been with the company for 4 months. They seem to want to utilize my complete skills set and make up for her lack of marketing knowledge but maintain her position as director and pay me a entry level marketing manager salary. Advice?

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
