Amazon corporate employees get RSUs which are stocks, not options. After the new hire RSUs go away, you end up with two vest dates a year and new comp offerings start the following year (so in 2024 you’ll see new money in 2025 plus a small base salary bump that goes in effect that month).
Tech salaries are frequently stock based, but Amazon’s is unusual in that it’s only twice a year, and bumps start the following year, and they recently made the change to do 2 year offers instead of 3 years.

I can’t speak to Amazon specifically, but a very common practice is
4 years
After 1 year you get 25%
Every quarter after that you get 6.25% (25% a year)
But you don’t know if you’ll even make it a year in the current environment
