I currently have two offers and have a hard time making a choice. Qualcomm, San Diego, GPU Software, Base 100 Cisco, San Jose, Software, Base 125 - Given that I'm equally interested in both technologies(GPUs and computer networks), which one would be a better option in terms career growth, company work culture and location? The deadlines are fast approaching and any help would be greatly appreciated. Cisco TC = 125, Qualcomm = 137 (15k relocation + 22k RSU)
Qualcomm
No happy people at Cisco. There are happy people at Qualcomm.
Yup. I'm one of them!
Go to San Diego
Cisco pays bonus, what grade did you get in Cisco?
Grade 062 (SW Engg Master's)
You will get 5% or so. Which Bu/team/org?
Qcom
The reasoning behind this would be insightful.
Better roadmap consodering future 5G potential. More scope of money. Overall a better company than Intel. In san diego, its the headquarters of Qcom, so better mobikity within the company if you dont like your team . Also compensation is better
SAN DIEGO, need I say more?! Surf wax America buddy!! LETS GOO!!!
For Cisco, ask for RSUs and sign on. All my friends were new grads 2 years ago and got 120k base + RSUs with 0 YoE.
Cisco is full of incompetent and lazy devs, go to Qualcomm
What's the TC?
Cisco TC = 125, Qualcomm = 137 (15k relocation + 22k RSU)
