As part of my performance review this year (epm, aiml org), got promoted to ict5, with very low raise in spite of 8/9 ratings. Manager told me, you ll be in this level for several years. I don’t see much growth in my team. Projects/programs/ products that I support are not cool/great/exciting Would like to know what should be my next step for growth in my career ! Should I sign up for executive MBA ? Or take up some certifications ? Move into other department or switch company? #tech #epmapple #career New tc ~$420k Base - 215k Refresher RSU-200k (over 4 yrs) Bonus -25k YOE-13
SW?
Is executive MBA worth the investment? How many folks found it financially rewarding?
Yeah, that’s my question too.. curious if anyone has taken that path.
200k refresher over 4 years is very good.
OP - I'm a strong opposer of staying in the team! You won't grow technically and financially! Don't be loyal to anyone but yourself
Executive MBA from a top tier university will help if you want to jump to a smaller company as Director of Engineering etc. It’s useless for large companies.
How long you been at apple? Usually promotion to ICT5 is a long process. Not sure what EPM at AIML org does but if it is pure executor then I would try to move up to strategy building.
8/9 is a star performer, why do you want to leave such an nice team?
You are basically at 215k base and 50k RSU per year. Bonus is also never a thing. They always find a way not to pay a dime. So you are at 265k/year which for an ICT5 level I would say is worst than terrible! ICT5 should hit around 500k total.
Their REFESHER is 50k/yr. TC is 420 according to the post. Which means their breakdown is probably something like Base 215k Original rsu/yr ~135k Bonus (guess) 20k New rsu 50k Total 420k

Is that 200k per year or over 4 years?
Over 4 yrs
So 50k/y? How does that TC add up?
