Question from new joinee at Qualcomm: If we are eligible for annual review cycle (AR) this year, and joining base salary is already at the starting range for next grade level, is there a chance for promotion in the AR 2025, or is it impossible till AR 2026?

For promotion you have to wait at least 2 years if it is lower title and 3-4 years in senior titles no matter whether ur salary is starting range of next grade. They have a very huge overlapping ranges so don’t worry u will get some hikes but definitely it will be less than internal candidates who might have less salary

Thank you. Technically, since next year (Nov 2025) is going to be my 2nd AR at Qualcomm, I would still be eligible for a promotion if I perform really well right? I am a Sr. Lead, but I was at a similar level in my last company so just trying to understand.

Sr Lead to staff is not easy. You need least 4,4,5 ratings for promo.
If your sal is on higher side, you would probably get better bonus n stocks but not hike

Just to Add, how much hike one can expect consider they joined mid year and are eligible for AR the same year?

I am in a tech IC position. One of friends switched to FAANG by converting the profile to consultant profile. The friend who might have less tech knowledge than me is now in FAANG and earning more. If the end goal would be that the friend might one day be a product manager and me an engineering manager taking instructions from the same friend, isn't consultant profile an easier path to growth. I had been practising DSA for years and the competition is only ever growing.

Which is better career path among these two ?
