Amazon Offer- Accept or decline?

Base: 75k
Sign-on: 43k
RSU: 825 shares
TC: 122k

Current TC: 98k
YOE: 6

Received an offer for non- tech CCM role and wondering if I should accept. I feel like I was lowballed and downleved despite having 6 YOE (relevant but not in tech). Not sure it will be beneficial to leave my current role for this offer to get my foot in the door.

I’m at the cap for salary at the level/role and can’t negotiate offer any higher.

That sounds extremely low?

Still better than current...
Don't spend/ count the sign on unless you can to stick around for a whole year.

Thanks for the feedback! sign on is prorated per pay check and not in a lump sum

I’ll say go for it. You were lowballed but that seems to be the norm for non-tech roles unless you’re coming from another big tech.

It’s ~25% higher than your current TC and will help you break into tech. In a couple of years you can easily exit to a better company for a 30-50% raise.

While skills certainly translate. Tech experience is also relevant

First of all congratulations 🎊 on the offer. Do the recruiters tell you the level for the role when you started the interview process? I have an interview coming up but still unclear on the level they are hiring for

I asked btw it’s okay to reach out to your recruiter to confirm

This is a good offer given your experience. You have a lot of upside for promo as you gain cloud experience and a good entry to a tech role

Very low, just received an offer for a non-tech role at Amazon and my base was much higher but depending on your current company it could give you a foot in the door and big name on your resume

I will be doing someheavy recruiting for Product Managers. Having a hard time with the existing team to persuade them that the uniqorns they are looking for dont exist. They are fixated that unless someone does not know to work agile or have tech specific experience they dont want to see them. Some of the questions also they have for candidates are an imitation of big corp companies like google, facebook etc. I am a big advocate on giving chances and trying to get through to them. Any ideas?
