Lowballed “Engineer” and it’s been worst choice Joining as engineer
I have joined Qualcomm when I was at 2yoe.
offered 20Lpa as base, 1L bonus, 1L relocation, 16K stocks, 8% of base as perf bonus.
Now, my friend joined qualcomm at 2yrs 4months exp and got 28Lpa as base with senior engineer, 30K stocks, 5L joining bonus.
The gap is just 6months. And there is huge difference in pay.
In AR26, I am expecting promotion. I will have 1yr 6months of Qualcomm exp by Nov & I am top performer in our team (I got to know this somehow). But I’m fully skeptical.
Even with promo, I won’t reach 28Lpa base.
Without promo, max I will reach to 22Lpa
How much Can I expect in AR26 hikes?
