Amazon (AWS) vs Microsoft (Azure)

[runic berry]

amazon

[slim shell]

zon in terms of res value clears

[hexed iris]

housing is 10k for msft

[noble bronze]

Is that separate than relocation? Ik zon combines it now

[hexed iris]

Relocation they pay for flights and everything

They also give like a 1.2k commute allowance + $300 relocation stipend

[ripe ermine]

Zon is not paying for flights this year

They just increased relocation stipend is 7800

Zon

[upbeat plaza]

Amazon mogs

[fair umbra]

yo take microsoft bro,

i worked at AWS denver last year they were hella toxic bro

[noble bronze]

Can you tell me more either here or dms

[hybrid turtle]

Is workday worth considering with same Amazon offer

[balmy walrus]

i had both of these offers and chose msft and regret nothing

engineering quality at zon is distinctively lower and this translates to management as well

[noble bronze]

Was this an internship you already completed or coming up?

[tawdry ibex]

zon resume value is much better

[balmy walrus]

completed

i will also say the msft interns were invited to the zon parties

but the zon interns were not invited to the msft parties

do with that information what you will

[upbeat plaza]

aws clears azure

microsoft is slow as shit

u will learn far more at aws

also gl crossing 250k at msft

[glass jackal]

!process Microsoft

[tame dew]

not anymore

==

[tame dew]

this i agree

[clear kestrel]

msft offer is still relatively competitive as a NG and you wouldn't really be approaching 250k as a new grad at either company.

this is just for internship I wouldn't go so far to thinking about mid-level pay lol

[tawdry ibex]

eh

sure tbh

[clear kestrel]

both are great companies. i'd honestly just focus on the return rates for both. Amazon is pretty good about returns. maybe someone at msft can give some insight on the return rates.

[balmy walrus]

it's been 70%+ past couple years

[cedar needle]

Isn’t that what it always was

[ripe ermine]

It was 7100 + flights last year

[radiant ravine]

Microsoft has pretty good return offer rates and it's much more relaxing than Amazon

[noble bronze]

How much does Microsoft give for housing?

[hexed iris]

10k post tax or corporate which is a hotel

[hexed anvil]

this is definitely not true

but id still say choose msft

[gaunt crescent]

Last year was buns

Def more relaxing tho

No work Friday

[radiant ravine]

Take the lump sum

[tame dew]

Last year was still 85%+ for SWE
