This. If for nothing else then to have a year or so of experience and their name on my résumé. I’m already at a pretty world renowned place now and collecting contacts and credentials like Pokémon cards actually means something for career building.

Plenty of tech jobs out there paying 6 figures without working everyone like mules.

Their turnover rate at all levels is insane
I should say, I don't think I've ever seen an Amazon employee smiling when I've been for an on site

Meanwhile my job only gave me a funky ass $1800 raise this year fukk them cacs
“you should be happy you even have a job. Be happy you’re getting a raise in the first place. Now quit ya bytching and get back to work”
This only means the black 6 cert brehs will have to settle for Amazon positions because those companies you mentioned ain’t hiring black folk even tho we are qualified
Cap on base salary, but most white collar folks get salary, bonus, & stock.
This announcement isn't going to change anything for the other tech companies, I doubt any of the other ones had such a low cap on base salary (relatively low for tech roles). Amazon could get away with this because their stock price stayed high and was stable. Facebook stock crash probably spooked them into do ing this and I dont blame them.
Seeing the salaries for Amazon new hires on levels.fyi and Non-execs having more of their year pay tied to stock vs base salary is wild, IMO.

Hardly any companies grant options anymore. They grant RSUs, and those get taxed as income (fed, state, soc,medicare) before it hits your brokerage account. So if you supposed to get a distribution of 1000 shares, you'll end up with 650 after the transaction is settled.
If you hold those RSUs for a year and sell, then those gains are taxed at the capital gains rate.

Amazon is used as a stepping stone to somewhere else.
