Amazon's compensation philosophy is built on our Leadership Principles and is sum of
three components (base pay, sign-on bonus and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
Base: This is your cash component paid on a monthly basis.
Sign on payments: Is the cash component designed to supplement base salary in the first
two years, when a smaller portion of your RSUs are scheduled to vest.
