Hello,
My friend is expecting an offer from Qualcomm, San Jose in the wireless division for the senior engineer position. She has 3 yoe.
What's a good offer for this role? Also what's the range in terms of base, rsu and signing bonus?
We would really appreciate some data points to help her negotiate properly. She has been lowballed before and it makes her depressed to be on blind. So, I am helping her out by posting from my account.
Update: (she got the following offer)
Base - 132k
Rsu - 60k over 3 years
Signing bonus - 35k
Blind obligation - Her tc is 160k and mine is 180k.

YOE 4
Base $117k
Bonus $30k
RSU $60k over 3 years
Hiring bonus $25k
Relocation $10k
TC : $167k ;
with hiring bonus and relo its $203k
When is the review cycle as I plan to join in June. As the TC is much higher than my current pay
Many other companies in the Bay will yield (much) higher TC. Why is she targeting Qualcomm? As you can see, it doesn't pay particularly well.
base is 125-150k for non-core team, core team base is 15% higher
bonus is 10-12% and RSU is 25-35k
