ASIC design engineer looking to see what kind of salaries would I be able to secure in India. Looking at both Front end and PD roles. TC:250k 5yoe
Try out QUALCOMM Bangalore. Base+ stocks and bonus, you should be able to hit close to 45 to 50 lacs.
50 lacks for 5Yoe is very unlikely
Highly possible if you work in niche area within asic design like graphics or modem design. And if he can carry the Apple brand it will be easier in QUALCOMM.
On A side note, what is the culture like in ASIC design in india? I’ve heard lot of horrible bosses and management around. I just chalked it up to inaccurate generalizations in most cases and want to believe the culture is not as bad as people make it sound
It will be pretty common. As you said there could be exceptions. Once you to decide job hop or relocate to India it means you are open to face all these unknown challenges. First you need to make up your mind in this part mentally.
My only suggestion is to do well research about the team and manager u will be joining. Worst case if u go and dont like the team, there are lot of opportunities and u can jump easily again.
Quite terrible honestly. More often than not, manager are half-baked moss collected pieces of stones.

How are the salaries for 10 yrs YOE SDM?
I've friends working in india at qcomm, intel, nvidia and google Here's the most likely salary you are looking at with the apple brand Qcomm/intel - 30-35 L Nvidia - 40 L Google - 40-50 L Google is still small team so you might be able to negotiate higher if you find and opening .. Else mostly you are looking at 30-35 ... Indian market still rides on exp .. and 6x your exp is on the very high end
50 lakhs must be easy
With 5Yoe you will be looking at 30 to 35L INR max
Top End?
I think so. But please post the offer u get
