Tech consultant that just landed an AWS SA L5 role @ 160k base and 1st year TC of ~210k in the NE. Obviously super excited for the possibility of exiting to FAANG but slightly dampened by the fact the tc will be basically flat from where I am... and lower than my base - they wouldn’t budge on the overall number unfortunately. I was expecting something around 225ish based on blind/fishbowl/levelsfyi but no dice. Is it a decent offer? Am I splitting hairs here?

AWS bakes in a 15% stock price increase YoY which doesn’t help your base but increases your overall TC. So far the stock increase has been spot on but who knows what’s going to happen.

I started at AWS in July this year and also feel very meh about the lack of increase unless you get a promo.

Yeah, I would have preferred to be ecstatic about the offer but my lack of a strong BATNA, desire to learn from an actual tech firm + wanting to rebrand myself a bit make me feel alright about my decision overall. Looking forward to this next step

Hello fellow designers!

I was laid off back in August and I have been trying to get a product/UX/UI job ever since then. With the recession and all of the crazy things that are happening right now it has been even harder.

Is anyone hiring a mid-level Product/UX/UI designer?
I have 3 years of experience as a UX/UI Designer and I am available to start working immediately! (Remote work is preferred since I live in Phoenix, AZ and there are not a lot of tech jobs here)

TIA ♥️

I am being asked to move to Richmond, VA for Sr. Mgr. Supply Chain Analytics role in an organization that is dire need of help.

I am currently at 146k TC, they are offering 190k TC.

I originally wanted a director level role to set the strategy, process, and tools.

Instead I am just being asked to develop the tools.

My hypothesis is a clear lack of strategy and no accountability for process compliance will mean any tools developed will fail.

Would you take job in those circumstances?
