Evaluate Samsung Offer for Staff Engineer, storage software.
Samsung MSL , SSD software team, anyone has insights? Base 188k Joining: 210k over 3 years Mob 20% base=36k San jose location Yoe: 5.5 Presently at AWS tc ~180k , SEA
What’s the TC at Samsung? It’s hard to understand, what Mob is for example.
Tc for 1st year is 295k
That’s a good jump! I would go for it.
From L4 to staff?
With 5.5 YOE it could be under leveled. Imagine, if you are L4, and your manager doesn’t want to promote you, it’s hard to get the right leveling when trying to switch…
Yes
Is there any joining bonus?
Yes 210k over 3, equally distributed
I know msl team, memory solutions lab, just stay away from this fuckedup team and company, u will regret it.. too much racism, outdated tech stack and support work from korea .. nothing interesting
All teams are as you say or ssd team is any different
Mostly same, but MSL is next level fucked up
MSL team is not fucked up. It's a good team with lots of knowledgeable folks there. Really top notch people.
Y did u join Intel?
I joined because I didn't trust AXG leadership. I think Raja is a snake and Lisa is incompetent.
What level are you at Amazon?
L4
