Question for the Amazonians here. My TC is going to fall off this year as I enter into my 5th year. The only way to prevent this is if Amazon would award me RSU’s that vest in the same calendar year. Is this even possible?

Word is that they’re fixing this and it’s a top priority this year but I’ll believe it when it’s official. Otherwise you have to leave — I’m sure you’ll make loads more wherever you go. 5 years at Amazon/AWS gives you ample of high paying opportunities.

How does this work? Didn’t you know going in that you’d eventually stop getting your sign-on RSUs? Do your financials depend on them?

Sorry probably dumb questions, just new to the world of RSUs

However, Amazon treats PCS as though TC went up. And even if stock is flat the entire 4 years, my TC should not drop drastically lmao, let’s be real here.

If stock goes up by 60k, your TC absolutely goes up by 60k, by definition. You’re thinking about TCT

They didn’t give you refreshers year 3?

16 for the refresher grant. I think part of the issue is I was promoted in year 2, so my year 4 comp was super high because I had my initial shares plus additional shares from promo.

Wait, see, and then leave if it doesn't work out. That's what I would do, anyway. Staying would be so incredibly demotivating at that point.

No because you got significant windfall in years 3 and 4. Your total comp has not changed or only gone up slightly since you joined.

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
