Iโm new on Blind and I keep seeing software guys making top money with even less than 5 YOE. With 5-10 YOE the TC is off the roof!! Good for you guys
But what about hardware design guys? Which company pays the most? And how much?
6YOE
TC 210k Bay Area

This is also what makes switching from Apple to other companies a pita, no body else makes these custom modules like Camera, Display etc. not even other companies trying to get into consumer electronics like G/FB.
I don't Apple obsession of perfection and beauty is right or other's approach of getting something out which is just good enough, but as long as Apple keeps bringing out shiny new stuff, they're going to need boatloads of HW engineers whom they pay well. I know dinosaurs in our org who have been around since 2000s and Apple has always paid best in class for HWEs, even from pre-iPhone days. Trade-off is a shitty toxic environment ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ
Definitely much better than I expected
Gives some hope in hardware
Thanks
