Had someone look up IEEE 2008 salary with these specs:
San Diego, PhD, 15 years experience+, senior level 8 (equivalent to GS-15 or Academic Department Head or Dean), communications industry, manages 25 engineers,
basically supersmart engineer at QCOM working 15 years managing entire dept with several patents.
$160-220K (median to 90% percentile)
Of course I wont even mention the $5 Million in stock options for this lady.
So yes, all you bitter engineers should realize that everyone is making $150K except for you lazy ME’s, ASIC designers, etc. Better watch out those genius “engineers” from India with their 6 month Oracle diplomas are gonna take over your job because you people are so lazy and nobody wants to do real work. But I digress.
