Falls within the Qualcomm bracket 😞 but maybe on the lower end....especially for Bay Area ...

Tried negotiating using another offer I have from a startup as leverage but this is the best qualcomm could offer me.

How are yearly pay raise and bonus determined in qualcomm?

You will not be able to live a decent life in the bay area with this amount. I suggest either finding another job, or moving to a different area. You will not be able to enjoy your life given the high cost of living which will leave you with almost nothing at the end of the month.

Jeez relax. It's 150 a year. He will have a pretty decent life. He is mid 20s at the most.

It's a decent offer and you can always move teams to get salary appreciation..

Base is low. Rest are good

Apple nazV38 Aug 3, 2020

Looks decent, if you are aiming at 140k base + 100k/4yrs comp then you can only make it at faag

Not really, Qcom offers much better salaries now!

Not really Kukurmutta. Only for few teams, rest all are paid peanuts.

Qualcomm kukurmutta Aug 3, 2020

You can ask for a base of 140k, Qcom offers 125-155k for Senior engineers in Bay Area

Qualcomm Wavygravy Aug 3, 2020

155k maybe if someone is stuck at senior engg for too long..i doubt if that is ever the starting offer

Qualcomm kukurmutta Aug 3, 2020

FYI, MS+3yoe is typically at the lower end of senior engineer level

Qualcomm Wavygravy Aug 3, 2020

Ok
