I will begin targeting new grad roles starting next year, and want to get a better grasp on companies that offer similar TC to both hardware and software folks. I know Apple for sure does, and fwiw, my Microsoft HW internship TC is the same as SW internships. I am mainly looking at FAANG type companies. I've heard Google and Facebook pays less for HW roles from others on Blind, but I am not sure how accurate that is. Can anyone confirm?
None
Intel, Nvidia, or AMD, maybe?
Apple SW refreshers are double that of HW . Someone correct me if I am wrong
Broadcomm- they can pay more for HW than even FAANG SW.. believe it or not..
One time deal, then you are stuck
None of them in general
Facebook Reality Labs
Can you recommend me :]
Lol ! I don't work there. Check LinkedIn for referral
I can attest that MSFT can pay HW as well as they pay SW. But there's less high paying competition in HW so less people have high competing offers than in SW.
MSFT underpays hw and sw equally
Very true, but I'd argue that pay is still top 25% for HW. It's just that SWE has more companies which beat out msft.
