Hi All,
I just got a call from KLA Company's HR that I have cleared final round and there is a HR round today evening for salary discussions.
The role is for Frontend Developer(Angular).
I have 3.1 years of experience.
CCTC - 13.2 LPA (all fixed)
Holding offer of 17.5 from service company in Pune.
Does anybody have any reviews for this company for the s/w department?
How much should I ask?
What are the other ways I can negotiate? Like do they provide RSUs?
KLA Corporation
Thank you

I'm not sure if any job is really safe these days. Government, private sector, it's all kind of up in the air right now. I'm just saving as much money as I can and not making any rash decisions about anything related to finances or my career. Maybe I'll have a job next year, maybe aliens will invade the planet. Either way, I'm just rolling with things as they come.
It could depend on your industry. States are having federal funding taken away with no warning so it's really hard to say. State police is one that I don't think would be affected much. I'm in drinking water and feel a little more safe than epidemiologists but nowhere near how I felt last year at this time. Like the previous comment, I think a lot of public and private job security is up in the air- a lot of systems in society are intertwined, it all needs money too.
I don't think any job at any level of government can be considered secure and safe these days. If the past few months haven't hammered this home for you, I'm not sure anything will. I'm getting out as soon as I can.
The Federal hiring freeze expires in July. Departments such as Defense and Homeland Security have not been impacted by the hiring freeze. Check out USAJobs.
It was extended by presidential action to July 15. It can be extended again. Not all jobs at DHS were impacted. CBP is hiring.

Umm, it depends on the state I would think. And how dependent that state/ position is reliant on federal funding. But if you do find a job in state or local governments, make sure it is a union position. You will want that job protection.
It all depends on funding. And due to volatility in economy, it is going to fluctuate a lot.
Was just layed off from federal workforce. DOT. Very hard times
Irs?
Not all jobs within a state are secure, as much of their funding comes from the federal government. It's important to choose a department that does not heavily rely on grants. I worked for my state but had to move to a federal position due to a loss of funding, and some states also pay less.
No. I work for the state & they are threatening to fire us @ Social Security.
Retiring this Wednesday. Sigh…,
The hiring freeze will expire on July 15th according to The Whitehouse website.
