Promotion was totally based on favoritism. When you see incompetent people in the team got promoted ahead of you because they are in the Dir's inner circle, you feel like you will never have a chance. Best decision is to leave.
I heard a PhD in 2001 still Staff Engineer. It depends in which team he/she works.
It’s absolutely not clear and that’s been one of the factors why people are leaving.
During my time there, I saw promotions based on favoritism and time and not merit.

The promises were there, they just never materialized. I was on the business side and I left after 3 years.
Good luck all.

Clearly no. Look at all the attrition at the Senior Eng level. It's clear these kids are jumping ship because there is no clear path to get a raise at this company. One member I know left after 5 years, never got promoted to staff. One of the better engineers I've had the pleasure of working with. He left and got a 95k$ raise.
The people who are supposed to be doing career development for the more JR staff (sr staffs, PEs, Directors etc) are failing miserably at it. That's probably why there is a large amount of attrition, no one who isn't already sr staff or higher has a clue what to do to get a damn promotion.
Also QC pays sh--.
