Pros

There is plenty to learn. Innovation is sometimes encouraged, which is good.

Cons

The culture is way too adversarial. Critical decisions are too heavily influenced by interdepartmental political. Talented individuals very quickly choose to work elsewhere, leaving the few remaining experts with twice the responsibility, including the responsibility to train less-than-ideally-qualified newcomers. Qualcomm would basically hire anyone, regardless of qualifications. The pay is also relatively low, compared to salaries offered elsewhere.

Pros

Great design team. Learn a lot in the project. Great resources for self motivated technical improvement.

Cons

Big wave of talented engineers leaving in some critical departments. CEO lacks responsibility on the company development. CEO and CFO have been selling their stocks a lot every year.
