...nly in Lam *The manager decides whom to offer RSU and not based on performance. * An experienced engineer's salary will be equal to a New college grad's salary. Instead of taking action, they will ask how we know fresher salaries which they post in college presentations. *If you work you will be overloaded with even more projects, instead, if you speak and speak, you will be crowned/promoted.

Lam research is not a software company, so all the technologies and applications used for SW development are outdated. No scope for learning. Career growth is there but very slow pace. This company is best to settle and retire.

Just had to share this, I got a 100% hike!

I'm keeping this anonymous because I don’t want to disclose it in real life. After two years without a raise, I successfully negotiated a 100% increase at my current company. I focused on creating significant value and worked in cross-functional teams to learn as much as possible. There were times when I was overworked, but it was all worthwhile. I was confident that it was a mutually beneficial situation. My advice would be to choose your job wisely, create value in the right place, and don't be afraid to negotiate.
