Asking for a friend. - No Work Exp - Masters in EE with Thesis - Joining Qualcomm Bay Area - Interned in the same team in summer - No other offers 107k base + 25k joining + 40k/3yr RSUs What is the general annual bonus % at Qualcomm? Can thesis be used as a negotiating point? Please suggest a few points for negotiation.
Looks ok
How much can we expect from Nvidia for op's profile?
40k/3yr RSUs, do you mean 40k over 3 years or per year for next 3 years ?
40k over 3 years
Standard.
Looks ok..won't get much better than this from Qualcomm at Engineer level.
Above average for engineer level
Ask for more base. But otherwise it's ok.
What could be a good figure to ask? highball number and the actual figure. Also, what do you suggest as valid justification for it?
110-115 is a good figure to ask. But you need competing offers regardless.
Way more than typical new grad in Qualcomm
Annual bonus will be around 10% but expect single digits in 1st year.
That is a good salary for someone without ph.d in analog design.
Look for salaries on Glassdoor. Then tell a number that is little higher than average salary on Glassdoor. You can ask them to increase the bonus as their is no relocation bonus.
