2) Boomerang to consulting - 200k base + 25% Bonus

What are your career goals? Sounds like you left consulting for tech once, so you probably won't stay in consulting for very long if you boomerang. That eliminates consulting as a long term option.

And why leave your current tech firm? The Amazon job might open more doors elsewhere in tech if you want to stay in tech. However, maybe it is better to stay at your current firm until you can access a better paying role in tech than the one you've been offered by Amazon. But if you applied to consulting because you didn't like tech, that changes things.

You seems like a very wise person. Can DM to chat? Would like to get your opinion.

Consulting. Amazon is a good brand name but there’s far more base salary growth potential in consulting. Amazon promo is like 15% raise to base. You were not offered enough stock to out weigh that IMO

helpful

That’s also max base at Amazon for most locations so don’t expect a base raise

100% agree with Manager 1. Just to add to it, stress and WLB for these are also a big factor to be considered if that’s something that’s important to you at this time. Startup vs big tech vs consulting will all have very different lifestyles.

Can you elaborate the different between Big tech and startup? I am familiar with consulting

That offer seems low for L6
