SYNOPSYS Offer

Offered 130k base + 12% bonus/year + 10k sign on as AE Sr II role at Synopsys Mountain view location with 6 yoe + MS. Seems low to me any chance of negotiation here? This is post sales role.

Intel rtldesign Sep 30, 2018

Which grade they have offered..is that 67 or 68?

Qualcomm aFSN48 OP Oct 1, 2018

Not sure about grade but at AE SR II position they won't offer any RSU.

Intel rtldesign Sep 30, 2018

For 67 and above you can ask for rsu

Qualcomm lnv568 Sep 30, 2018

Omg that's terrible. How did you do in your interview ?

Qualcomm aFSN48 OP Oct 1, 2018

Did pretty well actually. Next day I got call from recruiter saying they really liked me and want on board ASAP.

Qualcomm aFSN48 OP Oct 1, 2018

As I am only getting Base + 12% bonus every year what should be my ideal Base?

Qualcomm robben Oct 1, 2018

are you senior or staff at qualcomm? this is even lower than a senior at qualcomm

Qualcomm aFSN48 OP Oct 1, 2018

I was at Engineer III position(contractor) @qcomm which is equivalent to Staff Eng. And base vise I was getting more at qcomm. Only reason I am switching is to get full time due to visa issues nowadays.

Qualcomm ItsYourMom Oct 1, 2018

No... qcom Sr comp is shit. 120k base at most. 8% bonus, and many didn’t even get RSU

Intel rtldesign Oct 3, 2018

You can negotiate more on the annual bonus upto 15% and sign on to atleast 20k and more rsu if your grade is 68..for 67 they may not give ...what's your current TC and unvested rsu holdings in Qualcomm

Qualcomm aFSN48 OP Oct 3, 2018

Intel rtldesign Oct 3, 2018

Okay...do you negotiated further

Qualcomm aFSN48 OP Oct 3, 2018

Yes final offer 145k +15k sign on + 15% bonus

Intel rtldesign Oct 3, 2018

Its good .. Any possibility for rsu's? Do they mentioned the grade?

Synopsys disney818 Jun 29, 2019

Snps is no more well-paying company. Promotion is a lot slower than other companies. Look for other opportunities.

Cadence rehash’s Jul 11, 2019

I am getting about the same for another company in Austin. Have a new verbal offer from Snps, they are not giving me any number and asking me to give them a number . I am thinking 165k base but looking at above comments don’t think that’s gonna happen.

Cadence rehash’s Jul 12, 2019
