Leaving Big 4 consulting as a Manager (161k base, TC around 180ish) for dream Amazon Senior PM role. Don’t want to overshoot but is 300k too much for an initial ask? Base is capped at 160k and was thinking remaining 140k in sign on bonus/stock over first few years. My friend there thinks it is doable but worried about them laughing me out of the room instead of negotiating.

Amazon has been low balling everyone recently. Wouldn't expect much

YOE?

Yes doable

What is the level for the role? Are you done with loop?

What did you say your expectation was before the loop was scheduled?

Top end of L6 caps at ~275. You sound like a strong mid-tier inching towards top tier of L6.

See what they feel in the feedback.

If I were in your shoes, I’d be good with 240-260.

I guess it’s possible if you’re bringing some significant YOE and mad skills to the table. You’re gonna be asking for the cap base and a hefty RSU/Bonus. Just rehearse your worth story and give it your best. Good luck!!

After interviewing and negotiating with FAANG (G in my case if it matters), they tend to low ball by a huge margin irrespective of your expectations. The only way to get them to a desirable number is via a competing offer. Your expectation might seem logical to you but they can easily low ball you unless you have a real offer from a competing firm.

G is notorious for this.
