Capgemini iFKR76 OP Jan 1, 2022

I was new grad and that's how much I got as sign up lol

Capgemini iFKR76 OP Jan 3, 2022

Since you are working at Dell. What is the min and max window for Principal Position ?

Dell SWE@gym Jan 3, 2022

I have no idea as I have seen wild numbers as well as poor. It depends on org and I'm a new grad in 2019. But signon was like 10k. Dell underpays a lot so don't expect raises when you're here. Just negotiate before joining and if they don't budge either you were on top of the band or you lookup elsewhere. If you join top of the band, you won't get raises more than 2% or min until you get a promo. So pretty useless tbh.

I think this good pretty much. Dell pays only this much. Although, I do think the bonus % should be 10-12% for I8. And of you want you can try to ask for an increase on signon. Or 180k ish base.

Thanks for the response.

EMC le_plaisan Jan 4, 2022

Not much else you can do for i8 afaik, bonus should be a bit higher do

Capgemini iFKR76 OP Jan 4, 2022

I gave my offer lets see what they gone do

EMC le_plaisan Jan 4, 2022

For i9 should be 15% and a bit over for i10 Good luck!

Capgemini iFKR76 OP Jan 7, 2022

Offer finalized .. 190k base 75k RSU same sign on

Good job, i was waiting for an update on this post. Glad you were able to get an increase in the TC.

EMC le_plaisan Jan 7, 2022

Amazing, were you kept at i8 ?

Capgemini iFKR76 OP Jan 7, 2022

Yes at i8, i think it is better to be at i8 because when you promote to i9 you will get a major difference in salary. HR said company is also planning to do 10 to 12% bonus at Prinicpal level.

I’d say it’s low given your YOE and position. Bonus percentage is what they pay company-wide for I8 tho. It’s 15% for I9 and keeps going up. Ask for more RSUs for sure, companies are paying way more than that.

Capgemini iFKR76 OP Jan 7, 2022

i tried thats the one they offered. Right now Stocks is fallen alot defintely it is going to double. I will be happy if they given more. As of now i am happy with the package, i am getting 115k which is very less comparing to what dell offered.

You're at the very high end for i9 in terms of salary, highly doubt you will get much increase when promoted. Your bonus will go to 15% though. Refreshers only to top few performers.

Capgemini iFKR76 OP Jan 7, 2022

You mean i am at very end of I8 ? May be I would say with i9 base pay can go more than 250k plus thats what i am seeing in other posts. Lets say after 18 months got promoted to i9. I would see lot of pay difference. Being in i8 you wont get much hike since i am in high end of i8 close to i9.

Dell siznizzle Jan 7, 2022

No that's the high end for an i9. I work at Dell if you didn't notice.
