Got an offer from Amazon Kuiper team at Bay Area. How's this project kuiper? Does Amazon hardware team provide any annual cash bonus or rsu refresher? TC for next year: 260K New TC: 280K Yoe: 7 years #hardware #semiconductor #amazon #bayarea #asic
What type of HW? L6?
I think they are doing satellite. Not sure the level as it's not mentioned
Offer breakdown? What type of HW role is it? ME? EE? Board level? FPGA? ASIC?
No bonus or RSU refreshers per say. RSUs vest 5-15-40-40% from year 1-4. Your cash sign on bonus likely is spread over two years, first year slightly higher. RSUs are granted for future years if your “target” comp (hidden) is not met with current RSU value, this happens at an yearly comp review.
😂Does that mean you will not get any new RSU if Amazon stock price keeps increasing?
Yep, basically why lots of Amazon employees get frustrated and leave. If stock does a 2x like it did in the last few years you still end up making lots so 🤷
Only 20K change in TC ? I wouldn’t do it . Xilinx is doing fine , it will be better with AMD acquisition
Layoff happened in my team. This is the initial number. I'm trying to do some negotiation
Xilinx starts layoff ? That is unexpected. DM for MS HW opportunities if needed.
