Wow! That's so much money for senior/L6 FAANG.
10 years ago my last non-contractor gig as a Grade 8 Intel Senior Staff Microprocessor Engineer (or 9? just below principal. I forget.) in Santa Clara pulled $200k including bonus and options, 170k if it was a shit year for bonuses. And that included a 4 year stretch with 0% raises for everyone in the early 2000's. That's with -15- years experience.
I guess in 2010 that was pretty good? I dunno, they routinely fucked everyone except the principals and above, who have very strange compensation systems, but no one had the guts to leave: this was during the no-hire collusion for which I got a settlement check of $10k, which was peanuts compared to the impact.
- loeg 5y agoYeah, all of the above. The market was a lot less hot in 2010 on the back of the 2008 financial crisis; Intel is just kind of a shitty employer all around; and illegal no-hire collusion didn't help.
