Pros

The benefits at Qualcomm are very good -- free medical/dental/vision. Decent 401K match. ESPP is good too (stock is doing very well). Free gym membership. There's a good work/life balance here. Compensation is also pretty good (but I can't comment on the bonus plan).

Cons

This was one of the most boring jobs I ever had. It turned out to be more of a sustaining/maintainence role. Bug fixing occupied about 80% of my time. There's very little feature development going on in San Jose. Most of the significant work is happening in India.

Pros

Within Qualcomm there are many interesting projects that you have the opportunity to work on. With a good manager you can be autonomous and have a large amount of freedom to work as effective and efficient as you want to.

Cons

Typical large corporation politics exists, but it's not difficult to figure out where, what, and who to avoid.
