Great place to work!

Pros

Very dynamic and fast paced work environment. Collegues are very competent and work long hours. Benefits package is good. Vast majority of folks have their own private office (instead of cube). Management is honest and ethical. Not a whole lot of politics or bickering that I am aware of amonst the rank and file. Review process is quite fair and open and happens every 6months. Lot of visibility at upper management level in terms of who is working on what and hence, definitely not a place for slackers to go and hide somewhere.

Cons

Not much in terms of career growth and promotions are hard to get. Merely being brilliant is not enough. Be ready to put in the extra effort if you want to go to the next level.

Stable company with good benefits

Pros

Stable company with strong balance sheet. Benefits are very good with 2 tiers based on your position. Lots on push on innovation by getting into adjacent markets but not yet materialized into revenue streams. QCT and Licensing division are the crown jewels bringing in 90% + of the revenue and profits.

Cons

Company has become top heavy. Too many Directors and above. Decision making authority resides only in higher management levels. Relentless focus on execution at QCT, know folks who routinely work 12+ hour days.
