AWS to Oracle

Question

Currently at L6 and slim hopes of getting to L7 this year. Most likely in 2023. I got an offer form Oracle and the total comp is $340k. Unless I get significant raise this year, It will still be lower than this at AWS.  I'd like to know if $300k range is normal for L6 SA in Boston area ? Also what is ideal IC-5 SA range for ORacle in Boston area. Any insights will be greatly helpful.

Definitely can do better. Check out NVIDIA for SA roles. They're one of the highest paying companies for SA's

That seems low for SA in a high COL place like Boston. You should push for higher if you can. I have friends who are L5 SA’s making close to 300k in NYC and SF so try to push closer to 400k if you can!

I think you can do better, the number you suggest is on the lower end of spectrum for ic5

You can do better than Oracle and higher TC for sure at L6

Personally I’d take less pay than work for Oracle!

300K is low for Boston. You should be getting 350k+ and ideally close to 400K in that area. If I were you, I will keep pushing for L7 at AWS and then move.
