Hi folks, I wonder how much should I ask for my base salary as a senior system engineer? I have ms and phd degrees from North America. Besides, I have two years of relevant research experience in a university setting. What would be the range I should look for? 120k-130k per year?
How about bonus and other perks? Thanks for your time on this.
Good luck...115 is staff salary...QCT doesnt hire top notch PhDs...so 105 max
@KOQW8KE-2gwf thanks for your suggestions and time on this. Much appreciated!!
Sr. System Engineer w/ Ph.D. try for ~ $120K base. Increases are only 1-2% per yr. on avg. Bonuses depend on whose butt you kiss & whether you are willing to not have any life. Sign on bonus--depends on whether you are moving long distance & how badly they need your skills. Usually RSUs/options instead of cash. Emphasize skill set rather than degrees, b/c HR hos tend to be snobs who look down on community college & foreign degrees.
is there any range for the rsu and sign on bonus? Thanks again everyone.
Thanks who replied with some solid suggestions. I appreciate your time on this.
@u of phoenix guy, If I have a Phd from u of phoenix and can get a job at QCT, you should be ashamed yourself, assuming you dont have a degree from u of phoenix. lol
University of Phoenix?

Glassdoor avg salary is 115k. So it should be at least more than 115k,
100k
