Qualcomm Associate Hardware Engineer reviews

The recent layoffs were very poorly handled. Good performers were let go while all the deadwood continue to remain. Poor compensation compared to the industry. Poor health benefits from the next year. Promotion dependent on the number of years spent rather than the performance. In summary, come to Qualcomm only if you have no other alternative.

Old practices, cannot think of out of box strategies, too slow in adopting newer technologies, horrible upper management. Tons of directors, tons of VPs and too heavy executive management. Drop in a stock is common at this company. Key is to sell all your ESPP and RSUs on a the day it is assigned. Otherwise you will get only tears.
