I've been at Amazon for a bit over 5 years with 12 years total. Joined with about 7 years of prior experience. From the other post I see I did a very poor job of negotiating when I first joined with my experience. I've always saved the stock and considered it more retirement savings than spending cash.

- brotherjerky 11y agoWow, you got a bump in 2015 and went somewhere with lower cost of living (plus no state income tax). That's definitely a win-win.
- eistrati 11y agoIndeed big increase in revenue compared with cost of living. I'm surprised that you've decided to move to Seattle instead of switching to another company in SF. Can you please share the reasons why?
