Pros

This company is a leader in the mobile SOC and mobile communications market. There is lot to learn in here. The compensation is also on the higher side with respect to the average in the market.

Cons

Very stressful, maintaining work life balance is not easy. We have to work in weekends even if the project is not in the peak phase.

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.
