Band Hierarchy

Analog Devices publishes job titles and broad equity eligibility but no global grade dictionary and no salary schedule. The N0 to N10 sequence used here is a research normalization laid over the P1 to P6 engineering levels that public salary datasets do expose, and only the vice president, senior vice president, executive vice president, chief executive and director tiers are titles Analog Devices itself discloses.

Chair and Chief Executive Officer
Vincent Roche
Fully disclosed in the proxy statement, including salary, non-equity incentive, stock awards, perquisites and the pay ratio.
Executive Vice Presidents
Richard C. Puccio, Jr. as Chief Financial Officer and Vivek Jain for Global Operations and Technology
Named executive officers with a full Summary Compensation Table, target incentive percentage and target equity grant.
Senior Vice Presidents
Martin Cotter for Vertical Business Units and President of EMEA, and Katsu Nakamura as Chief Customer Officer
Named executives for FY2025, so their pay is disclosed, but expatriate arrangements make Nakamura's other-compensation line unrepresentative.
Chief officers and regional presidents outside the named group
Janene Asgeirsson as Chief Legal Officer, Mariya Trickett as Chief People Officer, Jerry Fan as President of ADI Asia and Rob Oshana for Software and Digital Platforms
Named on the official leadership page with no compensation table. Michael Sondel appears only through Section 16 share movements.
Non-employee directors
Ray Stata as co-founder and director, Stephen Jennings, Andre Andonian
A published retainer and grant framework with individual totals in the director compensation table; outside the employee hierarchy entirely.
VerifiedOnly the senior vice president, executive vice president, chief executive and non-employee director rows carry a company disclosure. Everything from N0 through N8 is reconstructed from public salary datasets, job postings and visa wage records.

Track divergence

N0 to N3
Everyone sits on a single individual contributor path and cash dominates. At N1 the observed package is about 90 percent base, 8 percent bonus and 2 percent annualized stock, and public United States software P1 records show no stock at all.
N4 and N5
The technical and management tracks diverge. Staff-level technical work can sit alongside first-line engineering management at the same band, and Analog Devices publishes no equivalence map that would let a P5 be read as a director.
N6 and N7
Technical scope is judged through architecture, cross-product influence, patents and platform ownership while management scope is judged through headcount, budget and business-unit responsibility. Equity share of the package roughly doubles across these two bands.
N8 to N10
Compensation becomes global and role-specific rather than a city multiplier. Equity was about 86 percent of chief executive target compensation and 78 percent for the other named executives in FY2025.

Hierarchy qualifications and legacy structures

  • The P1 to P6 labels are real in the sense that public salary datasets consistently expose them for Analog Devices engineering roles, but no filing, careers page or plan document establishes them as an internal global grade sequence.
  • No public management band numbering exists. Manager, Senior Manager, Director, Senior Director, Vice President, Senior Vice President and Executive Vice President are title layers, and inventing M1 to M6 grades to fill a chart would misrepresent the evidence.
  • Role family matters almost as much as band. United States hardware P1 total compensation of about $104,000 materially exceeds software P1 at about $90,900, and the two tracks cross over again at P3.
  • Legacy plan structures survive acquisitions. The 2020 plan absorbed shares from the 2006 ADI plan and the Linear Technology 2010 plan, and Analog Devices assumed the Maxim 1996 plan in 2021, so two employees with similar restricted stock units may sit under different award documents.
  • The non-employee director row is a governance package rather than an employment band and is excluded from the range chart along with the vice president and named-executive rows.

Peer-level mapping

BandArchetypePeer mappingCaveat
N0Intern, Operator or TechnicianIntern, hourly and support tiers at Texas Instruments and MicrochipOperator and technician populations behave differently across countries from the professional ladder, so this row is the weakest comparison in the table.Wilmington total less base and the 2.5 percent target leaves a residual carried as other pay, because shift premium, overtime and meal or transport allowances rather than equity fill the gap at this band. No routine grant is observed at N0.
N1Associate Engineer, public level P1Entry professional grades at Texas Instruments, NXP and MicrochipAnalog Devices publishes no peer crosswalk; the P labels come from third-party salary datasets, not from an ADI grade chart.Wilmington medians scaled from the national P1 anchor. The directly observed United States decomposition is $94,200 base, $2,600 stock and $7,300 bonus in hardware and $88,200 base, no stock and $2,800 bonus in software.

The realized bonus sits below the 10 percent target estimate.
N4Staff Engineer or Engineering Manager, public level P4Staff engineer and first-line manager grades at semiconductor peersThis is the band where the technical and management tracks diverge, so a single row covers two quite different jobs.Observed United States medians are $162,000 base, $25,400 stock and $22,000 bonus in hardware and $160,000 base, $24,100 stock and $14,700 bonus in software.
N5Principal Engineer or Senior Manager, public level P5Principal engineer and senior manager grades at semiconductor peersPublic P5 samples mix hardware, software and management submissions, so the spread within the band is wide.Observed United States P5 records show $174,400 to $178,000 base, $21,200 to $37,300 bonus and $21,600 to $30,700 of annualized stock for $220,800 to $242,400 total.
N6Senior Principal Engineer or Director, public level P6Senior principal and director grades at semiconductor peersThe two public P6 pages of the same dataset disagree at $307,700 and $361,500 total compensation; that conflict is preserved rather than averaged away.Observed United States P6 records show $206,700 to $210,000 base, $56,000 to $84,000 bonus and $45,000 to $67,500 of annualized stock. Third-party director benchmarks put the management side near $245,791 average and $263,000 median total.
N7Fellow or Senior DirectorFellow and senior director tiers at semiconductor peersNo Analog Devices disclosure covers this band. Public senior director total compensation observations cluster near $319,000.The research report's separate annualized equity indication for this band is $75,000 to $150,000, which does not reconcile with its own total range once a 35 percent variable target is applied. The residual shown here keeps the row internally consistent and the discrepancy is recorded as a known gap.

Critical evidence warning

Analog Devices does not publish salary bands, band minimums, midpoints or target bonus percentages for ordinary employees, and no companywide rating scale or hike matrix is public. Every figure below the named executives is a third-party observation or a model calibrated on one, and should be used for orientation rather than quoted as an Analog Devices pay band.

Analog Devices does not publish city-level headcount, so this catalogue does not rank offices by employee count. The FY2024 proxy described offices in 31 countries and more than 70 design centres, and the official regional-headquarters page identifies Wilmington, Limerick, Munich, Tokyo and Singapore as regional centres.

  • The Wilmington column is the anchor. Its medians are triangulated from the reported United States engineering decomposition, Analog Devices job-posting ranges and the $113,300 Wilmington labour condition application median across 311 filings.
  • Bengaluru, Limerick, Melbourne, General Trias, Penang and Singapore carry direct third-party observations. Camas, Petah Tikva, Shanghai, Beijing, Auckland and Dubai are explicitly modelled with no Analog Devices-specific band table behind them.
  • Auckland and Dubai are coverage models only. The official regional-headquarters page does not identify a New Zealand or United Arab Emirates headquarters, so those two rows should not be read as evidence of a significant employee site.
  • India total compensation runs at roughly 12 percent of the Wilmington anchor at N0 and rises towards 42 percent at N7, because senior Indian packages carry a far larger annualized stock component while junior packages are almost pure cash.
  • The executive and board rows are global disclosures converted for comparison only. Analog Devices does not mechanically reduce chief executive or executive vice president pay in lower-cost countries, so those rows are not a local range in any selected city.

Model rules

  • Every modelled cell is the Wilmington median multiplied by the city base or total factor and then by the 25 August 2026 European Central Bank reference snapshot, with the United Arab Emirates dirham taken from the Central Bank of the UAE.
  • City factors are least-squares fits of each city's own published band table against the Wilmington table rather than a single mid-ladder multiplier, so level-dependent compression is preserved for Bengaluru, General Trias, Penang, Limerick and Singapore.
  • Total compensation is base plus target or observed variable pay plus annualized equity. Employer superannuation, provident fund, social insurance and other statutory contributions are employer cost and are excluded, so no notional benefit load is added anywhere in this model.
  • Thirteenth-month pay, shift premium, overtime and production incentives are not folded into the professional bands. They are called out at N0 instead, where they dominate the difference between base and take-home cash in manufacturing sites.
  • Where no direct city observation exists the cell is marked modelled and should be treated as a planning envelope rather than a benchmark. All ranges are annual gross compensation, not payroll cost to company.

ModeledVerifiedFor FY2025 the executive plan weighted operating profit before tax margin 50 percent and year-on-year revenue growth 50 percent. A 41.9 percent margin produced a 97 percent factor and 19.1 percent revenue growth produced a 230 percent factor, giving a calculated 163 percent that was capped at 161 percent so it could not exceed the annualized employee-plan factor. The plan changed in FY2025 from quarterly measurement with semiannual payouts to annual measurement and payout, and the maximum opportunity fell from 3.0 times to 2.5 times target.

Employee payout timing and history

The employee performance incentive plan measures quarterly operating profit before tax margin and quarterly year-on-year revenue growth against the same targets and averages the four quarterly factors for the year, annualizing at approximately 161 percent for FY2025. Analog Devices does not publish employee target percentages by level, individual modifiers, business-unit weightings or country payout cadence. Payout volatility is real rather than theoretical: the corporate factor was 182 percent in FY2023, 27 percent in FY2024 and 161 percent in FY2025, so target bonus should never be valued as guaranteed cash.

Sales and special incentives

No public catalogue of Analog Devices sales, factory, shift, spot, patent or sign-on incentive design was located. Sales roles in this model carry the same estimated targets as their level peers, which will understate on-target earnings for quota-carrying sellers and will misstate cash for manufacturing populations whose shift and overtime premiums are a large share of take-home pay.


Equity — RSUs, PSUs, Options & ESPP

Analog Devices is a Nasdaq issuer, so employee equity means restricted stock units, performance restricted stock units and employee stock purchase plan purchases rather than an Indian-style employee stock ownership plan. Legal eligibility under the 2020 plan is very broad, but grant selection and award size remain discretionary and no minimum eligible band is published.

Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan
Active; the amendment became effective 11 March 2026 and no new awards may be granted after 11 March 2030
Verified
Permits incentive and nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisers. Employee options and time restricted stock units generally vest 25 percent on each of the first four anniversaries and executive performance units cliff vest after three years. Options and appreciation rights cannot be priced below fair market value, run a maximum ten-year term and cannot be repriced without shareholder approval.
Reserve: 11,592,135 shares available at 1 November 2025 plus 13,000,000 approved in March 2026, less interim grants, plus up to 5,387,303 qualifying returning shares

Amended and Restated 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Active; shareholder-approved in 2022
Verified
Consecutive six-month offering periods beginning in June and December, funded by payroll deduction. United States participants buy at the lesser of 85 percent of fair market value at the beginning or end of the period. Eligible non-United States participants buy at the lesser of 80 percent, subject to local sub-plans. These are purchase rights rather than compensatory grants, so the employee bears market and concentration risk on money they contributed.
Reserve: 5,000,000 shares originally authorised with 3,680,484 available at 1 November 2025, about 26.4 percent used or reserved

Closed to new grants; expired 12 March 2021
Verified
Legacy options, appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock awards remain outstanding under their original terms. Legacy employee awards generally vested in four equal annual instalments and legacy performance units ran a three-year performance period. Options under this plan were never permitted below fair market value.
Reserve: No new awards; eligible forfeitures and returns may feed the 2020 plan under its share-counting rules

Verified
Converted restricted stock units and restricted stock awards continue on the original Maxim schedule, with newer units typically vesting in four equal annual instalments. No options remained outstanding at the cited date. Two employees holding apparently similar restricted stock units may therefore be governed by different plan and award documents.

FY2025 Form 10-K and the 2026 definitive proxy statement
  • Equity-plan overhang was 3.48 percent at 1 November 2025 before the share increase and 6.11 percent on a pro forma basis including the 13,000,000 added shares.
  • The precise active reserve after grants made between 1 November 2025 and the 11 March 2026 shareholder meeting is not publicly disclosed, so any current ungranted balance is an estimate.
  • 16,003 people were eligible under the 2020 plan at 1 November 2025, comprising 15,989 employees excluding officers, five officers and nine non-employee directors. Eligibility is not a grant.
  • The past-award table covers 12,897 current non-executive employees holding 9,284,592 shares, of which 4,547,136 had vested and 3,785,129 remained unvested. The distribution across that group is highly unequal.
  • FY2025 restricted award activity was 2.379 million units granted at a $164.33 weighted-average grant-date fair value, 1.957 million vested and 476,000 forfeited, leaving 4.427 million outstanding and about $640.2 million of unrecognised compensation cost.

Employee time restricted stock units generally vest 25 percent on each of the first four anniversaries, and the FY2025 named-executive time units vest in equal instalments on the first through fourth anniversaries of 15 March 2025. Performance restricted stock units are a single three-year cliff on certification and pay 0 to 200 percent, so they follow a different curve entirely. Director awards generally vest at the next annual meeting.

Eligibility by hierarchy level

  • No filing specifies a guaranteed minimum band for equity or a standard grant size below the named executives, so the annualized values in this report are observations and models rather than a grant table.
  • Observed and modelled annualized grant value runs from nothing routinely observed at N0 and up to $3,000 at N1, through $20,000 to $35,000 at N4 and $50,000 to $100,000 at N6, to $150,000 to $500,000 at the vice president band.
  • At the report-date share price of $373.73 those values translate to roughly nine shares a year at N1, 53 to 94 at N4, 133 to 268 at N6 and 401 to 1,338 at vice president. These are value translations, not evidence of a standard share-count grant.
  • The employee stock purchase plan should be modelled separately from employer-funded equity. It is a purchase right funded by the employee's own payroll deductions, and non-United States participants get a deeper 20 percent discount under the disclosed accounting description.
  • Relative total shareholder return performance units are measured against the S&P 500 comparator group and financial-metric units against three-year cumulative non-GAAP operating profit, so a strong share price alone does not guarantee a full payout.

VerifiedThe purchase plan is the most predictable equity value in an Analog Devices package because the discount is contractual rather than performance-dependent. Six-month offerings begin in June and December, United States employees buy at 85 percent of the lower of the beginning and end price, and eligible non-United States employees buy at 80 percent under the disclosed accounting description, subject to local sub-plan implementation. The trade-off is that the money is the employee's own payroll deduction and the concentration risk sits with the employee.

Executive Compensation

FY2025 Summary Compensation Table values from the 2026 definitive proxy statement for the fiscal year ended 1 November 2025. The stock column is grant-date fair value under United States accounting rules, not shares sold or cash received.

Reading the package

Base salary was 4.4 percent of the chief executive's FY2025 reported total, stock awards 80.1 percent, the non-equity incentive 14.1 percent and other compensation 1.4 percent. Equity represented about 86 percent of chief executive target compensation and 78 percent for the other named executives, so the reported number is an accounting valuation whose realized value depends on three-year performance certification and the share price on the vesting day.

CEO-to-median-employee ratio
534:1
Median employee $51,411 · The median employee is identified across the whole global workforce and explicitly includes manufacturing operators, including in the Philippines. Comparing the $51,411 figure with a United States engineer salary or a United States median is analytically misleading, and the ratio is not comparable across companies with different manufacturing footprints..

Analog Devices sits above Texas Instruments and NXP and below Microchip's equity-heavy fiscal 2026 total. None of these figures is realized pay and none share a fiscal calendar: Marvell reports a FY2026 year, Texas Instruments a calendar 2025 year, and the NXP figure covers a chief executive who took the role on 28 October 2025, so a partial-year effect is embedded in it. Treat the ranking as directional rather than as a normalized percentile.

Executive base salaries and target incentives were reviewed in April 2025 with FY2025 salary changes effective 4 May 2025. Puccio and Jain received market adjustments while the chief executive's base and target percentage were unchanged. Katsu Nakamura's $600,240 of other compensation includes approximately $554,649 of expatriate benefits covering housing, tax equalization, tax services, vehicle and parking, and cost-of-living items, which is a role-specific arrangement and should not be generalized to international assignments across the company.

Board compensation framework

ElementAmountNotes
Annual cash retainer$100,000Paid to each non-employee director. The chief executive receives no additional director or chair compensation.
Lead independent director$55,000Additional retainer on top of the standard board cash retainer.
Committee chair$30,000Additional retainer for chairing a board committee.
Committee member$15,000Additional retainer for serving on a board committee.
Annual restricted stock unit grantAbout $235,000The FY2025 grant was 1,160 restricted stock units for each ongoing non-employee director, generally vesting at the next meeting.
Disclosed individual totalsAbout $298,000 to $425,202Stephen Jennings at approximately $425,202 and Andre Andonian at approximately $374,910 illustrate how committee roles and timing move the total.

Director compensation is outside the employee hierarchy and is analysed separately for that reason. It is a governance package rather than a pay band, and no director received stock options in FY2025.

Regional heads and other officers

Janene Asgeirsson, Mariya Trickett, Jerry Fan, Rob Oshana and the other functional leaders named on the official leadership page did not qualify as named executives for FY2025, so no compensation table exists for them and their pay is visible only through Section 16 share movements where they file at all. Michael Sondel appears in the August 2026 Form 4 batch as an officer with no other public compensation record.


Insider Trades — SEC Forms 3/4/5

Analog Devices is a Nasdaq issuer, so the governing record is SEC Forms 3, 4 and 5. Indian exchange, SEBI substantial-acquisition and Australian substantial-holder regimes are not applicable. A withholding line is shares surrendered to cover tax on a vesting, not a discretionary sale, and reading the August 2026 batch as bearish sentiment would be wrong.

Reading guide

Withholding is mechanical, not a signalEvery 17 August 2026 line is a code F tax withholding on a restricted stock unit vest. Those disposals say nothing about an officer's view of the stock and should never be aggregated with open-market sales.
Performance units really do pay above targetVivek Jain's 2023 performance restricted stock units were earned at 192.01 percent of target in March 2026, close to the 200 percent cap, which is the mirror image of the 27 percent cash payout in FY2024.
Legacy options are still liveThe chief executive's 2020 special performance option became exercisable in three tranches after share-price hurdles were met, and 1,197,069 options remained outstanding at a $115.14 weighted exercise price with about 3.8 years of term left.
Realized value differs from reported payThe FY2025 proxy reports 80,000 options exercised for $10.406 million of value realized and 123,060 stock-award shares vesting for $25.811 million, against a $27.456 million reported total that is mostly grant-date accounting value.

Benefits & Perks

The FY2025 Form 10-K states only that benefits vary by country and are designed to meet or exceed local law. The United States programme is the sole one described in company-specific detail, so every other region below separates the statutory baseline from an undisclosed Analog Devices enhancement rather than guessing at the enhancement.

United States

  • Retirement401(k) with a company contribution of up to 5 percent plus a match of up to 3 percent. A dollar-for-dollar match on the first 3 percent contributed sits on top of the non-elective 5 percent, giving a maximum 8 percent company contribution subject to Internal Revenue Service limits. FY2025 company expense was $74.9 million. [official]
  • MedicalMedical, dental and vision plans with life and disability insurance. Business travel accident cover is also disclosed. Insurer names, premium splits, health savings account seeding and disability replacement percentages are not published at companywide level. [official]
  • LeavePaid time off and parental leave. Vacation, company holidays and sick days for exempt employees are confirmed in company material, but the day counts are not disclosed companywide. [official]
  • FamilyBackup child and adult care, adoption support and family college planning. Counselling and employee assistance style support are also named in the FY2025 filing, with no published coverage limits. [official]
  • GrowthEducation assistance and tuition reimbursement. Confirmed in both the FY2025 filing and the careers material, alongside internal mobility and the Analog Mentoring Program. No annual cap is published. [official]

Global programs

  • EquityEmployee stock purchase plan at 15 percent off in the United States and 20 percent off elsewhere. Six-month offering periods beginning in June and December, priced at the lesser of the beginning and end fair market value, funded by payroll deduction and subject to local sub-plans. [official]
  • GivingGlobal matched charitable donations. Confirmed in company careers material as a global programme. Match ratios and annual caps are not published. [official]
  • GrowthInternal mobility, the Analog Mentoring Program and a large internship pipeline. More than 500 interns globally with over 60 percent conversion to full-time roles, according to company careers material. [official]
  • SupportMental-health counselling and employee assistance support. Named in the FY2025 filing alongside health and welfare, retirement and paid time off programmes, with no coverage detail published. [official]
  • Working modelGlobal hybrid-work standard. Not publicly disclosed. Learning-platform vendors, certification budgets, sabbatical policy, relocation matrix and country leave calendars are equally undisclosed. [npd]

Benefit fields not publicly quantified

Benefit comparison should use employer cost and employee net value rather than a list of programme names. A 12 percent Australian superannuation contribution, an 8 percent United States 401(k) company contribution and a 12 percent Indian provident fund contribution are structurally different instruments with different tax and portability treatment, and none of them are included in the total compensation figures in this report.


Performance Review & Pay Progression

Analog Devices discloses its executive review cycle and almost nothing about the employee one. Executive base salaries and target incentives were reviewed in April 2025 with FY2025 salary changes effective 4 May 2025, and the committee weighed performance, experience, tenure, responsibilities and peer-market benchmarks.

Not publicly disclosed

No companywide employee rating scale or set of rating labels was found in any official source.
No forced distribution or bell curve is published, and no percentage of employees in each rating bucket is disclosed.
No general employee appraisal calendar exists publicly. Employee reviews broadly mention yearly raises without an authoritative global hike date.
No standard hike matrix by rating, promotion minimum tenure, probation confirmation rule or fixed promotion-hike percentage is disclosed.
No dataset publicly separates lateral hires from internal promotees at the same level, so any lateral premium at Analog Devices is unquantified.
Analog Devices states that its philosophy seeks equal pay for equal work regardless of gender, race or ethnicity and reports workforce and leadership gender representation, but no adjusted pay-gap analysis by country or grade was published in the reviewed sources.

The company regularly conducts employee surveys and reported FY2025 strengths in teamwork, collaboration, leadership support, manager availability and skill development. It publicly supports specialist individual contributor paths, and its field applications engineering careers material describes advancement within a defined specialist track without moving into management, which is the clearest published evidence that the two ladders are genuinely separate.

Pay progression evidence

Modelled planning assumptions, not Analog Devices policy: N0 to N1 typically takes six months to two years for an 8 to 20 percent increase depending on conversion and market; N1 to N2 takes two to three years for 8 to 15 percent; N2 to N3 takes two to four years for 10 to 18 percent; N3 to N4 takes three to five years for 12 to 20 percent; N4 to N5 takes three to five years for 12 to 20 percent; N5 to N6 takes four to six years for 15 to 25 percent; N6 to N7 is variable and scope-driven; and N7 into the executive tier is executive-market and succession-driven. A community thread in the Philippines described progression at roughly two years to the second level and another two to three to the third, which is anecdote rather than policy. Use these for workforce planning and never represent them to a candidate as a commitment.


H-1B / LCA Visa Footprint — United States

Analog Devices sponsors H-1B workers mainly for engineering roles in Massachusetts and California. A labour condition application records the guaranteed wage offered for a specific occupation and worksite, so it is useful where salary sites are sparse but it excludes bonus, stock, benefits and usually sign-on payments, and a filing is not a hire.

Reading the data correctly

  • Labour condition application wages are the proffered guaranteed base salary. They exclude the cash incentive, sign-on payments, restricted stock units and the purchase-plan discount, which together are the larger part of a senior package.
  • Eight of the ten city rows published a minimum, median and maximum but no quartiles. Those rows show the minimum and maximum in the low and high columns rather than interpolating a quartile that the source did not publish.
  • Wilmington and San Jose quartiles come from multi-year city distributions while the record counts are FY2026 filings, so the two numbers on those rows answer slightly different questions.
  • The retrieved extracts disagree on counts because they use different fiscal-year filters, refresh dates and status categories, and one 2026 tracker's 199 applications should not be combined with the Department of Labor quarterly release without de-duplication.
  • A filing is not a hire. Certified applications exceed petitions, petitions exceed employees, and a filing can cover continuing employment rather than a new arrival.

Key Nuances & Insights

01There is no public grade dictionary

Analog Devices publishes role titles and some salary sites expose P1 through P6, but nothing in any filing, careers page or plan document establishes a globally uniform grade architecture. The N0 to N10 sequence in this report is a research normalization built so that locations and tracks can be compared, and it should never be quoted back as an internal band.

02Eligible for equity is not the same as granted equity

16,003 people were eligible under the 2020 plan at the FY2025 close, but grant selection and award size stay discretionary and only 12,897 current non-executive employees appear in the past-award table. Purchase-plan eligibility is a separate benefit again and should never be confused with an employer-funded grant.

03Equity is structurally dominant only at the top

Equity was about 86 percent of chief executive target compensation and 78 percent for the other named executives, while public employee records show stock at a few thousand dollars a year below the staff band and sometimes zero at entry level in software.

04The manufacturing mix depresses the global median

The $51,411 median employee used for the 534 to 1 ratio is a global population that explicitly includes operators in the Philippines. Comparing it with a United States engineering salary, or with a peer whose manufacturing sits in a joint venture, produces a meaningless answer.

05Payout volatility is real, not theoretical

The disclosed corporate incentive factor moved from 182 percent in FY2023 to 27 percent in FY2024 and back to 161 percent in FY2025. A target bonus at Analog Devices should be modelled as a distribution, not as deferred salary.

06Role family matters almost as much as band

United States hardware P1 total compensation of about $104,000 materially exceeds software P1 at about $90,900, and the ranking flips again at P3. Any single-number level benchmark hides a spread that is driven by discipline rather than by seniority.

07India is a high-skill arbitrage centre, not a low-skill one

Observed Bengaluru senior and staff engineering total compensation is roughly a quarter to a third of the equivalent United States level, and equity participation becomes visibly more common at senior levels, with reported stock rising from 49,000 rupees at P1 to about 1.03 million rupees at P4.

08Legacy awards survive acquisitions

Maxim, Linear Technology and the earlier Analog Devices plans persist for outstanding awards and returning-share mechanics even though new grants route through the 2020 plan. Any offer review should identify which plan and award agreement actually governs the units.

09Australia is research, not just sales

Analog Devices explicitly describes Box Hill in Melbourne as a global research, design and development centre for embedded and digital signal processing software, even though the generic careers-map country list omitted Australia at the time of research. That inconsistency in the company's own site should not be read as an absence of engineering scope.

10Two public pages of the same dataset disagree at P6

One page showed about $307,700 average total compensation at P6 and the United States-specific page about $361,500. That is a 17 percent spread on the single most valuable non-executive band, and it is preserved as a conflict here rather than resolved by averaging.

11Public evidence is asymmetric by design

Executive pay, plan mechanics, share pools and visa wages are filing-grade. Employee bands, review ratings, promotion hikes, local allowances and equity thresholds are not disclosed at all. Confidence markers on this report are load-bearing rather than decorative.

12The current share price flatters old grants

At around $373 a share, outstanding executive awards and annualized employee restricted stock unit values look far larger than their original grant-date accounting values. Grant-date fair value and current market value answer different questions and must not be conflated in an offer comparison.

Research control

Analog Devices' chief executive package sits above Texas Instruments at $22.67 million and NXP at $14.74 million and below Microchip's equity-heavy $40.50 million, with Marvell at $25.06 million just underneath it. The 534 to 1 ratio is far higher than most software peers, but almost all of that gap is the denominator: a global median employee of $51,411 in a company with its own fabs and test operations in the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand is not comparable with a fabless or software peer whose median employee is an engineer. On the employee side the P1 to P6 ladder tracks the analog and mixed-signal market closely, with equity share of the package rising from about 2 percent at entry to roughly 15 percent at the senior principal band.

Known gaps and diligence before relying on a cell

  1. 1The two bundles disagree on the August 2026 chief executive option exercise. One records a 10,000-share exercise at $108.08 with a same-day sale at $363.00 on 3 August 2026 and the other a 10,000-share exercise at $108.08 with a sale at $389.75 on 1 July 2026. This report follows the bundle that cites the specific Form 4 filing index for the August transaction and preserves the May 2026 performance-option exercises from the other bundle as separate events.
  2. 2The bundles disagree on the P6 total compensation observation at $307,700 and $361,500 from two pages of the same dataset, and on the United Kingdom sample where P3 total compensation reads above P4. Neither is resolved by averaging; the anchor uses the Wilmington band table and records both as sampling artefacts.
  3. 3The research report's own N7 row is internally inconsistent: a 35 percent variable target plus its $75,000 to $150,000 annualized equity indication cannot both fit inside its $355,000 total. This report keeps the total and the variable target and takes equity as the residual, which lands below the stated indication.
  4. 4The N0 row mixes interns, operators and test technicians whose geography behaves differently from the professional bands. Melbourne and Singapore entry pay sits above the interpolated factor because of local wage floors, and manufacturing sites carry shift, overtime and thirteenth-month cash that this model deliberately excludes.
  5. 5No notional employer benefit load is added anywhere. Australian superannuation at 12 percent, the United States 401(k) company contribution of up to 8 percent and the Indian provident fund at 12 percent are employer cost rather than pay, so total compensation here is base plus variable plus equity only.
  6. 6Auckland and Dubai are coverage-market models with no verified Analog Devices employee site in the official regional-headquarters list. They are included for completeness of the footprint and should not be read as evidence of a significant employment centre.
  7. 7Petah Tikva, Shanghai and Beijing carry no Analog Devices-specific public band table at all and rest on a semiconductor-market model, so they are the least reliable priced markets in the location table.
  8. 8Analog Devices discloses no geographic revenue split in either research bundle, so no regional revenue panel is presented rather than repurposing the panel for something else.
  9. 9The FY2025 and FY2026 visa extracts disagree on record counts at 304 against 308 and on medians between roughly $125,420 and $153,083 because of different filters and refresh dates. Each figure is retained separately.
  10. 10No verified public announcement of a uniform FY2026 global salary-hike percentage, a companywide salary freeze, a salary cut or a single global reduction-in-force count was found. Anonymous reviews mention reorganizations and annual reductions, but that is sentiment rather than evidence.

Recent News & Workforce Trend

Analog Devices' 2026 has been an operating-recovery story rather than a compensation event. Record quarterly revenue and a completed acquisition improve the incentive backdrop, but no companywide salary action was announced in any reviewed source.

~26,000
FY2022 employees
Voluntary turnover of 11.2 percent, reflecting the elevated post-pandemic labour market.
~26,000
FY2023 employees
Turnover normalized to 7.6 percent with headcount still around 26,000 and roughly 13,000 in engineering.
~24,000
FY2024 employees
A reduction of about 2,000 people, roughly 7.7 percent, with turnover of 8.0 percent.
~24,500
FY2025 employees
A modest rebound of about 500 people and the lowest turnover of the four years at 7.2 percent.

Engineering headcount has held near 13,000 across the whole cycle even as total employment fell and partially recovered, which points to reductions concentrated outside research and development. The FY2025 filing references higher charges related to Global Repositioning Actions and higher employee variable-compensation expense in the same year, so it supports neither a claim that everyone received a specified raise nor a single worldwide layoff percentage.
