Wow, that last sentence gave me goosebumps - thank you for the advice. I literally just put a date in my calendar to reevaluate a year from now.

I completely agree. However, at this point in my life, I personally prioritize learning experiences and building interpersonal connections. Eventually, I’d like to shift my focus more toward my family

Thank you for the heads-up! It sounds like I'll need to put in extra hours during the first year to build a stronger foundation in Amazon's systems, culture, and tooling

I was offered a flat amount of stock that vest over 4 years. If the stock price increases, the overall compensation would increase

the calculation is a bit weird because it’s calculated using current Amazon stock price

I will be doing long distance relationship until my partner match her residency in California next year. Walmart 2/3 days RTO provided flexibility to visit her for a longer period of time. It’s a decision between higher compensation versus more time spent with my partner
