Pros

Nothing that I can think of.

Cons

No work life balance. Weird Hierarchy. Managers take a lot of action items without understanding anything which staff under them have to complete spending their day and night. People are made to work during weekends also. No empathy shown by them even if the person is busy, or disturbing during personal time by continuous calls and messages.

Pros

Great benefits, the pay is like okay. Some cool reimbursement programs and health centers on campus

Cons

Career progression and culture varies extremely depending on department. Some parts almost set you up for failure and it's difficult to gain new skills. Lots of qualcomm teams are too scared to explore new technologies and migrate to state of the art services and are comfortable in sticking with old technology for familiarity. Also, HR does nothing if a coworker makes you uncomfortable.
