Honestly, interview around with no expectations if you haven't. You may be surprised at what else is going to be offered. I'm not going to tell you it's necessarily 400k or anything, but the variance is quite high if you're willing to relocate to, say, Seattle. An amazon resume is worth a certain amount of money, and there are other companies that will offer you things you enjoy working on too.
- lowiqengineer 7y agoI’ve tried, but haven’t gotten interviews from the companies I’m interested in. I did get a offer from a hedge fund, but it was a severe lowball (50-70% of typical offers) probably due to my interview performance.
- chillydawg 7y agoIf it was a good hedge fund, they won't offer anyone they don't rate. If they offered you because they think you're mediocre and can get you cheap - do not work for them, they're charlatans.
- lowiqengineer 7y agoIt was Citadel. I think Two Sigma is considered more impressive.
- chillydawg 7y agoCitadel are certainly not charlatans. Are you sure you're not just good at what you do but have crippling imposter syndrome?
