Pros

Overall Qualcomm is an Okay place to work. Everything depends on your team lead. If you are with a good lead, you are fine. Otherwise, life is not easy.

Cons

Lots of pressure, hard to get promoted as there are lots of competition. The number of people who can get promoted is very limited. Many times people in my team have to work overtime to meet deadlines.
