      Pros

      Beautiful city San Diego. Free sodas. Multiple gyms and cafeterias. Corporate R&D used to have a lot of smart people back in the day.

      Cons

      Corrupt and incompetent management at all levels from director all the way up to EVP and CEO. VPs looking out for their friends during the review process. HR seems to be hand in glove with VPs in helping out his or her friends. All interns seem to be family and friends of the VP or sr. dir.

      Pros

      Location: San Diego is one of the best location you can work in US.

      Cons

      GPU is probably the worst department in Qualcomm headed by bunch of clowns. Promotion is only given to sycophants. Unless you are close the the small circle which controls the department, you stand no chance. People in this circle are one of the dumbest in the industry who will eventually blame their failure (almost every project is a certain failure) on employees. Annoyingly, You will always be compared against these people by your manager. Managers are the worst, at times abusive. Outright liars. If you are on immigration , STAY AWAY: Every single day your manager will remind of the HUGE favor done to you by filing your immigration. After all the mental tortue you get every week, your pay is one of the lowest in semiconductor industry.
