After joining the automobile for more than a month, Luo launched a "thirst for talents" in the communication circle of automobile peers. In just one week, the post attracted more than 140 people to reply. People who came to ask questions included employees of traditional car companies such as SAIC Volkswagen and Geely, as well as new forces such as Ideality and Tucki. Luo Minmin felt for a moment that "there are too many private messages in the background consultation, which is about to explode."
Since 202 1, some new figures have appeared in the army of internet car-making. From Baidu, Xiaomi to 360, the original technology giants have plunged into the car-making industry. With its ambitious plan to build a car, it is a new round of robbing people.
After seeing the recruitment information of the car online, Li's employees pressed the collection for the first time. Because of Baidu's advantages in autonomous driving, Du Ji Auto has become a new car-making company with more potential in his eyes. In the evening, he quickly prepared a version of his resume, and when he was ready to send it to the other party's email, he added a special sentence "I hope to get an interview opportunity" to show his sincerity.
Although his company ranks in the first camp of new cars, in Yu Xu's view, his salary belongs to "the peak of entry" and has remained basically unchanged for more than two years.
What makes him feel even more "stressed" is that in the case of only 22,000 vehicles sold in the first five months, there is a saying within the company that the target sales volume should be increased to 654.38+10,000 vehicles, and it should be linked to the employee's year-end bonus. In his view, 202 1 has passed about half, but it is still far from the annual target. "It's too difficult, everyone is very anxious, and more colleagues gather downstairs to smoke."
In the feedback from Du Ji Auto to Yu Xu, if you can join the company successfully, your monthly salary can be increased by about 30%. He believes that what attracts him is not only the increase in basic salary, but also the well-known benefits of "big factories".
In 20021year, almost every other month, a technology giant officially announced to build a car. Technology companies, which have always been rich in money, also broke into the car circle with the drive of spending money to dig people. First, Lei Jun announced a ten-year investment of $654.38+000 billion. Subsequently, car CEO Xia threw out a plan to invest 50 billion yuan in the next five years.
In order to build a team quickly, recruiting people has become a top priority for CEO. After becoming CEO of automobile, Xia spent most of his energy on recruitment. Even on weekends, he will interview from 9 am to evening, 12 hours. According to the plan, before the end of next year, the team size of Du Ji Automobile will be expanded to 2,500-3,000 people.
"At the beginning, the new car was stolen from traditional car companies and other places, so the salary was ideal," Yu Xu said. "This means that technology giants need to spend more money in this new round of looting."
Take the information on the third-party recruitment website as an example. The monthly salary offered by Weilai is 15-30K. Although the salary of Du Ji Automobile is also in the same range, compared with Weilai's 13, the salary given by the latter is 18.
360 Company started to form an automobile team less than a month after it announced that it would join hands with Nezha Automobile to build a car. In order to attract talents, on June 1 day, Zhou, founder and chairman of 360 Group, personally posted heroic posts on social media, saying that "the company has fully liberalized and fully supported the remuneration package."
The positions sought by 360 heavily include perceptual fusion algorithm, software architecture, information security and intelligent driving development. According to Sina Finance, the recommended bonuses for these positions alone amount to several hundred thousand yuan.
However, new records are still being broken by executives. Recently, some media broke the news that Xiaomi poached Hu Yinan, the president of Geely Research Institute, with equity and salary as high as 65.438 billion yuan. Not only that, Xiaomi also threw an olive branch to the R&D coffee of many traditional car companies. Although Hu Zhengnan later denied it as "false news", behind the rumors of sky-high poaching is the industry consensus that talents are scarce and the salaries of relevant employees are rising.
When technology giants embark on the same path, head companies naturally become their key targets. Weilai, Tucki and Ideality have all become the "hardest hit areas" for digging people. At Weilai's press conference in May, Li Bin, founder and chairman of Weilai, said with emotion, "There are too many people digging us recently. There is no way. We have to hide the information of our colleagues. "
A Weilai employee confirmed that "new employees who recently joined Weilai need to sign a non-competition agreement." This is also the routine operation of Weilai to stop the outflow of resources. According to Reuters, as early as 2065438+April 2009, Weilai stopped the investment bank that helped its IPO from serving other competitors through a rare one-year non-competition clause.
In order to retain employees, all families have tried their best. Weilai basically adopts "full shareholding". Earlier, an employee introduced that when 20 18 joined the company, he got 2000 shares of Weilai. By the end of 2020, with the company's share price rising to more than 50 dollars, he himself became a millionaire. The above-mentioned Weilai employees said that at this stage, the company will still give new employees option rewards. "Some people have 1 0,000 shares."
An employee who interviewed Li Yanhong said that Li Yanhong also promised to give new employees 4,500 stock options, 900 shares a year, which will be exercised within five years. On the evening of June 8th, as a "new force to build cars", Lan Tu officially announced the opening of the employee stock ownership plan.
However, for the core executives and "key talents" in the field of autonomous driving research and development, from the technology giants to the previous new cars, they are all facing the situation of "one person is hard to find".
Lin Jiaofen, senior director of human resources at Xpeng Motors, said in an interview with the media that there is no special intelligence major at present, and most of them are graduates majoring in electronics, electricity and computer. The market determines the relationship between supply and demand, and the starting salary of jobs related to intelligence is 20%~30% higher than that of other jobs.
An insider of a car company revealed to the Future Auto Daily that Xiaomi is digging a major town in the global driverless field, "starting with an annual salary of one million dollars." In this person's view, if key figures are recruited, it means that he can bring his own team and attract more talents.
According to the information of the third-party recruitment website, since this year, the demand for positions such as autonomous driving R&D, intelligent cockpit design, software engineer, sales and user operation has increased by more than 1.8 times year-on-year, and the annual salary has even reached more than one million. For the position of the head of the automatic driving front-end, Wei Lai offered "the monthly salary is above 95K, 16 salary", that is, the annual salary exceeds10.5 million yuan.
"For top talents, Didi is particularly generous." A middle-level employee who has worked in a car company for many years revealed in an interview with Science and Technology Planet that Didi's goal at this stage is the vice president level of traditional car companies, and the treatment provided is 200W W W. In traditional car companies, the treatment of these people is mostly 60W-80W per year. According to reports, since March this year, most of the posts posted by Didi are concentrated in D8-D 10.
"Not all cattle talents are like-minded people, and I don't see that all talents are suitable. We are more looking for like-minded people among high-end talents. " Summer just sighed.
