Hi, I got an offer for a design verification role from a HW start up in Austin and am wondering if this is good enough for Austin . Base: 210k(offered 195k negotiated to 210k) No bonus Relocation : 10k Sign on : 10k Equity: 150000$/4years ( paper money with current valuation of the company around 80M series B) YOE: 8.5 Current TC : 205k in santa clara Grade 8 New TC : 210k #hardware #startup #austin #semiconductor
Do you have any other competing offers? Or upcoming interviews? Overall it is a nice offer for Austin. Congrats!!
Thanks . I have one offer from a different startup in bay area and upcoming interviews at apple and microsoft . Both apple and microsoft positions are in bay area though .
Apple doesn’t pay their HW guys great. Lot of ex intel people. If you want to upgrade your work culture/environment not at all a bad choice.
210k cash should be amazing for Austin. 205k in Santa Clara is not so good.
Agreed
Apple could pay more. I just don't know this AI company's future.
Very good offer. Suggest you to take it
What's the company?
210k cash in Austin? That’s a lot! Congrats!
Hey what do you do at Silicon Labs? How's the company doing?
hey I have 6 years of analog design experience, I am expecting an offer from silicone labs, what should I expect, I have an competing offer 200K / year in dallas.
Which startup is this?
Thats a really good offer i use to live around austin and if you are getting paid 210k mann thats amazing you can live life king size and save a lot of money.
Austin is still cheaper than California for sure but things have gotten a lot more expensive recently
If u making that in CA. Why asking this for Austin?
Also, for startup where the future most likely is a question. Ask more. As long you are comfortable with the possible changes.
Intel is a dead end. Austin is a nice place, so I would jump ship and get the pay raise.
Agreed, really good offer for Austin
