Negotiating an offer with Amazon Canada. I'm based in Hong Kong (bank,director,12y). My base 1.08m HKD which translates to 180k CAD/140k USD. To count for tax diff (here: 15%, Canada: 40%), +40% to break even. I'm expecting +20% raise which can come from RSU. So: 180 * 1.4 = 252k CAD for base and 50k CAD for RSU. From glassdoor, this seems to be off the chart so what am I missing? If not for this then what role should I look for FAANG in US or Canada for this range?

Canada doesn't pay well enough when it comes to finance. Go to New York.

Companies rarely compensate for tax differential. And cost of living in Canada will be a fraction to cost of living in Hong Kong…

Hi fellow salesfolk,

I'm planning to move from Europe to Montréal, Canada in the next few months with my partner. I want to experience living abroad for a while + I loved my time there as an exchange student.

I've built my career in SaaS: 1 year as an all-round BDR, 2 years as a mid-market AE (closed some enterprise too, beat my targets and was nr 1) and now I'm in a BDR manager position for 6 months.

Is finding a job realistic? AE roles is where I shine the best. I speak both FR and EN

Which one of us is more right than the other? I'm interested in getting as many viewpoints as possible, whether or not they agree with me or with her. Thanks!!!
