What is the best part about your compensation package?
Competitive compensation package hard to be beaten
It's a holistic compensation packaged designed to meet my living expense needs, rewards for performance and giving me the opportunity to share in the company's future growth
401k double match with immediate vest
Briefly reviewing compsny emplyee reviees
Fair for the market value
Long term incentives are great
Everything is very good as per my expectations.
Salary, bonus, RSUs, 401k, healthcare and sign on bonus
The best part of the compensation package is the annual bonus and 401k contributions.
Equity and shut down days because everyone takes them.
Reason able against industry benchmark
Benchmarked accordingly to the market
The 401k match is amazing as well as the LTI and bonus structure.

The Total package is competitive
Review from Marketing Dept
retirement benefit is very good
Review from Operations Dept
Higher than national retirement fund contribution
Good bonus and LTI stock grants
Compensation was great for the level of job I had.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Low annual raises aren’t competiti
No consistency in payments across the same levels
Actually pay me market value
Base salary significantly below competitors (30%-50%). Stock vesting is very long so you hardly get anything each year. Health plan is lousy. Add to that HQ location is very expensive with no other companies nearby so you are stuck. And they know it which is why the compensation is so bad.
Because I know competitors compensate their staff much more generously (base salary is 10% below and stock compensation 50% below competitors.)
Getting 1-3% is not even keeping up with inflation in high cost of living area like Southern California Other Amgen site staff are paid higher because there are companies competing for staff
Review from Operations Dept
Should have negotiated for more before hire. After hired, almost no chance to change it without taking a new position or leaving and coming back.
